Im using Xcode 5, language C. and my input was:
include <stdio.h>
int main()
{ int i =2; int result;
while (i>0) {
result=i*i;
printf("%20d ^ 2 = %20d\n", i, result);
i = i*i;
}
return 0;
}
thats my code.
and my result is:
2 ^ 2 = 4 4 ^ 2 = 16 16 ^ 2 = 256 256 ^ 2 = 65536 65536 ^ 2 = 0
Just wondering why the code couldn't square "65536".
