NAME
       inttypes - fixed size integer data types

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       This header file defines integer data types of various sizes.  By using
       the data types defined in this header file, developers can  be  assured
       that  the data types will have the same properties and behavior on dif‐
       ferent systems.

       Since not all implementations are required to support all of the	 inte‐
       ger  sizes defined in this manual page, the proper way to see if a par‐
       ticular size of an integer is supported on the  current	implementation
       is  to test the symbol that defines its maximum value.  For example, if
       tests false, then that implementation does not support 64-bit  unsigned
       signed integers.

       The header includes header.

       This header file defines the following data type.

	      structure type that is the type of the value returned by the
			     function

       The  following macros can be used as formatting options with the family
       of functions (see printf(3S)).  These macros are	 used  to  select  the
       correct formatting option for the integer data types defined earlier in
       this manual page.

       The following macros can be used as formatting options with the	family
       of functions (see scanf(3S)).  These macros are used to select the cor‐
       rect formatting option for the integer data types  defined  earlier  in
       this manual page.

   Notes
       The  formatting	options	 for  the  family  of functions all begin with
       whereas the formatting options for the family of	 functions  all	 begin
       with These formatting strings may not be interchangeable.

EXAMPLES
       The  following  example	shows  how  to use one of the print formatting
       options with the function.
