### MedInt

#### Synopsis

         type
           MedInt  { built-in type }

#### Description

`MedInt` is a signed integer type which is not smaller than `Integer`. On some platforms it actually is the same as `Integer` and 32 bits wide and thus has a range of `-2147483648 .. 2147483647`.

`MedInt` in GNU Pascal is compatible to `long int` in GNU C. This compatibility is the reason why `MedInt` exists.

There are lots of other integer types in GPC, see Integer Types.

#### Conforming to

`MedInt` is a GNU Pascal extension.

#### Example

         program MedIntDemo;
         var
           a: MedInt;
         begin
           a := 42;
           WriteLn (a)
         end.
