On Visual Studio 2008 is it unsigned int?

Very good point. At present, the program crashes at an array of length about 64 million. That's nowhere near long enough,...

malloc for long long array?
I'm a novice C programmer and am getting stuck on the insistence of malloc on using "size_t" for data array length. I want to use:
C insists on truncating my "long long int" to "size_t". So perhaps I have to redefine "size_t" or use an alternative to malloc. But how?Code:float *array long long int n array = malloc(n*sizeof(float))
