Thread: Why does sizeof only return 4???

Well... I've just started programming in C again. I've been away from this beautiful language for far too long! Anyway, thought I'd brush up on a few very basic concepts, but it seems I've made a small error. Anyway, why doesn't this return the appropriate sizes for the given data types?

Code:

#include <stdio.h>


int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int i;
    char *types[] = {"int", "char", "long", "double", "long long", "char*" };


    for(i=0;i<6;i++)
        printf("A %s is: %d bytes in size!\n", types[i], sizeof(types[i]));


    system("pause");
    return 0;
}
