Answer / rohit
yes, i too agree it is compiler dependent. But, can anyone
explain, why it is compiler dependent?
If it is a 16 bit compiler, then the size of int is 2
bytes. If it is a 32 bit compiler, then the size of int is
4 bytes. Is there is any reason behind this? It will be
helpful if anyone clarifies this?

Answer / jp
The integer size is processor dependent.
In Turbo C or Borland C , we are using only the 8086
virtual mode processor. thus we get size of int as 2Byte
and thus size of long int as 4 Byte.

Answer / http://abhishek-technicalwork.
the ans to this question is (a) if the compiler is of 16 bit.
like c language compiler of 16 bit.
so it can be said that the size of the long int is compiler dependent..
therefore option (c) is also correct

Answer / darshan l.
Of course it is compiler dependent.
But the minimum size of long int must be 4 bytes(32 bits); it may be more than that also.
