C Primitive Types

Zig provides special c_ prefixed types for conforming to the C ABI. These do not have fixed sizes but rather change in size depending on the ABI being used.

Type	C Equivalent	Minimum Size (bits)
c_short	short	16
c_ushort	unsigned short	16
c_int	int	16
c_uint	unsigned int	16
c_long	long	32
c_ulong	unsigned long	32
c_longlong	long long	64
c_ulonglong	unsigned long long	64
c_longdouble	long double	N/A
anyopaque	void	N/A

Note: C's void (and Zig's anyopaque) has an unknown non-zero size. Zig's void is a true zero-sized type.
