    Well you're screwed if you want to do this with TurboC. It's a 20 year old 16-bit compiler!
    Someone is wasting YOUR TIME AND MONEY if they're teaching you with this crap.


    You should also ditch dev-c++ in favour of Code::Blocks
    It at least uses a more up to date version of GCC, so you should be able to use long long quite happily.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
