Concise means short but clear. Naming a type "i32" is short but not clear. It could mean an imaginary object of 32 things. Naming the same type as "int" clearly refers to an integer type with a non explicit size which give some freedom to the implementor to provide the best size available on the machine to compute integers efficiently according to the minimal range supported by the C standard. > I don't think you have to do that.

So should we start a new language each time we have to add a new fashion feature? The C programming language improvements are pretty slow because the language doesn't aim to be a fashion one but a reliable tool. -- GOTHIER Nathan
