we have avariablr
int bps; // bps determined during run time

we want appropriate declaration depending upon bps.

I don't really see why you want to do this, but perhaps you could use
a union of the possible types, and access the appropriate member
depending on bps?

Hi all,
I have a program. Please tell me what do you think about this.

int main(int x)
{
if(x==1)
{
int myval;
printf("size of integer myval: %d\n",sizeof (myval));
}
else
{
float myval;
printf("size of real myval: %d\n",sizeof (myval));
}
}

.
