Question

Possible Duplicates:
How would you set a variable to the largest number possible in C?
maximum value of int

I need to use the maximum integer value in my my code, but I don't want to explicitly write 4294967295. Is it defined somewhere?

Answer 1

INT_MAX (for int) or UINT_MAX (for unsigned int) defined in <limits.h>

Answer 2

Use limits.h:

#include <limits.h>

int maximum = INT_MAX;

Answer 3

There shall be a constant in limits.h, if I'm not mistaken it shall be INT_MAX

Answer 4

#include <limits.h>

INT_MAX

Answer 5

INT_MAX as defined in <limits.h>

Answer 6

The include file stdint.h includes all different macros for the different integer types. In particular UINTMAX_MAX for uintmax_t.
