"Word" is to INTEGER as what is to LONGINT?<BR> I don't think Long is a good answer.<BR>
It is the current answer.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
"Word" and "INTEGER" are not "related".<BR>
"Related" might be "UnsignedInteger" or "Integer" or "IntegerOps" or "SilentOverflowInteger"<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
I'm not proposing changing the name "Word".<BR>
But whatever is the LONGINT replacement...maybe "LongWord" or "UnsignedLong"?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
I don't think "Long" is the correct answer.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Or does "word" not imply "unsigned" or "silent overflow", merely "integer sized"?<BR>
