Question

Suppose in a hypothetical machine, the size of char is 32 bits. What would sizeof(char) return?

(a) 4

(b) 1

(c) Implementation dependent

(d) Machine dependent

Answer 1

Correct option is (b) 1

The best I can explain: The standard does NOT require a char to be 8-bits, but does require that sizeof(char) return 1.
