Dear experts,
I understand that sizeof(double) cannot be used with #if as
double is a type name. Could you tell me where in the standard it says
that I cannot use sizeof(1.0) or sizeof(1L)... ? Assiming that I can't
use sizeof(1.0) < sizeof(1L), is there any portable way to tell whether
long is longer(shorter) than double in preprocessor stage ?
Thanks in advance,
Nobu Katayama (Cornell Univ.)
