Dear GCC,  [ 8:2:23  ]
                  Like Woooew ! What is THIS!?  I installed Visual Studio Code, & your 32 bit C, Version 9.2.0. I ran :
   printf("\nOn THIS particular computer, long double is given %d bytes\n", sizeof(long double)); /* The Answer was: 12 bytes.
   THEN, I updated to C Version 12.2.0 and ran the same code, - ON THE SAME COMPUTER, - but NOW the answer is:  16 bytes !
 
    HOW can this happen if, as I understand it, - this function is supposed to assess a computer’s  *hardware* ?  I am on Windows 10 btw.
                                                                                       — Sergey.
