You see that code I asked you to copy-paste into your shell, a few posts back, there?

Copy-paste it into your shell, please. Don't type it. Copy-paste.

Your code wasn't actually giving wrong numbers for 1234512345?

When a program doesn't work as you expect, post the literal program. It works for 1234512345, it works for 1000000000, but it won't work for anything bigger than 4 billion because you run out of room in an unsigned integer. If you dont't post what you actually did, how am I supposed to guess what went wrong?

To print longer integers, you have to start using 64-bit integer types like int64_t from stdint.h and I don't know of any portable way to print those.
