How did you check that this is the largest number? I guess you either
used a wrong format specifier for a printf call (that'd clamp the value
to it's low-order long value). Also note that you should probably add a
type suffix of "LL" or "ULL" to that value, cf. 6.4.4.1 of the C99
standard.

So how did you use the long long typed variable?
