Program produces different results on different computers

I was doing problem 10 on project euler Project Euler

The following code produces two different answers on different systems:

Code:

---

#define INPUT 2000000
Bool isPrime(const int number)
{
  int i, sqr = sqrt(n); 
  if(n%2==0) return 0;
  for(i=3;i<=sqr; i+=2)
  {
      if (n%i==0) return 0;
  }
      return 1;
}


int main()
{
  int i;
  int sum = 0;
  for( i=0; i <= INPUT; ++i )
  {
      if( isPrime( i ) )
      {
        sum = sum + i;
      }


  }
  printf( "The sum of prime number less than %d is: %d.\n", INPUT, sum );
}

Ubuntu 12.04

Compiled by: gcc program.c -o run -lm

Computer A generates this answer: 1179908154 (wrong)
Computer B generates this answer: 142913828922 (right)

I was hoping someone could explain why this is. My guess might be because they are running on different architectures. But I really don't know.

Thank you

Your guess of different architectures is more or less correct. It looks like computer A is a 32-bit system (or at least it's running a 32-bit OS), so the maximum value that an int can store is around ~2,000,000,000 (~2 billion). Note, the correct answer is 142,913,828,922 (~142 billion), which wont fit in a regular int. You are seeing the effects of the summation "wrapping back around to 0". Computer B seems to be a 64-bit system, so a regular int can hold up to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (9 quadrillion), which is enough for the correct answer.

You could do it on computer A if you use C's fixed-width integer type int64_t (make sure you #include <stdint.h>).

If you ever want to make this more extensible, to sum primes beyond 2 million, you will need a big num library, like The GNU MP Bignum Library.

As anduril462 says, watch your machine architecture.

Thanks for the replies!
