unsigned long myvarz = 3000000000

The C language standard requires that type 'unsigned long'
can represent a minimum range of values from zero (0) through
4294967295, inclusive. Your value 3000000000 falls within
this range.


I compiled the following code with Microsoft
Visual C++ v6.0 :

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
unsigned long myvarz = 0;
myvarz = 3000000000;
printf("%lu\n", myvarz);
return 0;
}

I got output of:

3000000000


So perhaps you could specify what you mean by 'not taking'.
How did you verify there's a problem? With a debugger?
Did you print out the value? If so, which 'printf()' format
specifier did you use?
