size guarantee for integral/arithmetic types in C and C++

Question

I know that the C++ standard explicitly guarantees the size of only char, signed char and unsigned char. Also it gives guarantees that

Answer 1

Don't know about C++. In C you have

                                  Annex E
                              (informative)


                          Implementation limits

       [#1]  The contents of the header  are given below,
       in alphabetical order.  The minimum magnitudes  shown  shall
       be  replaced  by  implementation-defined magnitudes with the

       suitable  for  use  in  #if  preprocessing  directives.  The
       components are described further in 5.2.4.2.1.

So char <= short <= int <= long <= long long

and

CHAR_BIT * sizeof (char) >= 8
CHAR_BIT * sizeof (short) >= 16
CHAR_BIT * size of (int) >= 16
CHAR_BIT * sizeof (long) >= 32
CHAR_BIT * sizeof (long long) >= 64
