1. They will also be one 64-bit memory word. 2. So we have plenty of room. 3. So it does not hurt.

I think you have some large misconceptions about these things. sizeof(float) is going to return 4 for 4 bytes on any common computer these days. There is no "64-bit memory word" anywhere to be found, whatever that means. Nothing in either of your comments here is true or makes sense.

"Common computer these days" will eventually have to go.

And it probably will be much sooner than trans-Earth English language dominion.

I expected more of a "I guess I misunderstood how C works" sort of reply.

I began coding in 1994. I'm still basic in C, but not that basic.

8-bit byte will eventually have to go.

[CyberDildonics → thriftwy]

Will that be before or after the trans-Earth English language dominion?
