How to use int16_t or int32_t with functions like scanf [duplicate]

问题

The way that I understand int16_t or int32_t in C is that they are typedefed to be 16 and 32 bit numbers respectively on your computer. I believe you would use these when you need to guarentee a number is 16 or 32 bits because different systems do not always represent an int as 32 bits or a short as 16 bits (Is this assumption correct? I find mixed answers when I look online.).

My question is how would I use a function like scanf to get input from a user with a int16_t or a int32_t or any of the other typedefed number types when I require them to actually be 16 bits or 32 bits or whatever? Is there some sort of special string modifier? Normally if I wanted to get an int from a user without caring about how large it is actually represented as I would write something like this

scanf("%d", &int);

This works if I pass in a int32_t but I assume it is only because an int on my system is 32 bits and it does not specifically give me a 32 bit number instead it just gives me an int. How would I go about getting number that is guarenteed to be 32 bits? I have looked on this page of string modifiers and a few other places but have found no mention of these typedefed number types.

Edit: Since receiving an answer to my question I have done some Googling and found this. I included it below for reference as well.

For those you need to use the macros from inttypes.h such as SCNd64 or SCNu32 etc.

scanf("%" SCNd32, &x);
