[Bill Cunningham]

I would like to check the sizeof size_t. Anyone have a suggestion?

sizeof(size_t)?

its a typedef so why can't you just do sizeof(size-t)

sizeof(size_t)?

It would have to be that obvious ok thanks.

You may kick yourself when you see how trivial this is:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
printf("[Output]\n"
"For this implementation, sizeof(size_t) is %zu\n",
sizeof(size_t));
return 0;
}

[Output]
For this implementation, sizeof(size_t) is 4

unless the variable 'size' and 't' are declared, the type of their
difference is not very well defined, is it?

Is it not?
#define size 42
#define t 6
As far as I know, 'size' and 't' in my example are not variables.

size_t is a type. Therefore sizof needs it in parenthesis.

n = sizeof (size_t);
