Don't be such an ass. James Kuyper is a very experienced and 
knowledgeable C programmer. Of course he knows the difference between 
bits and bytes. But in this case it doesn't matter, because padding 
bytes are just rather CHAR_BIT-wide collections of padding bits. His 
point stands either way.

It emulated long integers using the mantissa and sign bits of a floating point type - the exponent portion was ignored, and was effectively just padding. But in that case, the exponent was, IIRC, something like 10 bits, so failing to include the padding bits in the size would still have required reporting the size in fractional bytes.

Thus, INT_MIN <= SHRT_MIN && SHRT_MAX <= INT_MAX is required. However, it's perfectly permissible for short to be a 24 bit type with 8 padding bits, while int is a 16 bit type with no padding bits. I can't think of any good reason why anyone would want to do that, but the C standard says nothing to prohibit such an implementation.

When you're wrong, the best course is to stand up, say sorry, sit down, 
and shut up. Aggressive posturing from an indefensible position is a 
losing strategy.
