C++ long Data Type Range Explained

In C++, the range of values for long depends on the specific compiler and operating system. Typically, the range for long is -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647, which is -2^31 to 2^31-1. However, this range may vary due to different compilers and operating systems. To ensure code portability, specific width integer types defined in cstdint can be used when a specific range of integers is needed.
