Include:
.IR <stdint.h> .
Alternatively,
.IR <inttypes.h> .

.IR int_least8_t ,
.IR int_least16_t ,
.IR int_least32_t ,
.I int_least64_t
.PP
The narrowest signed integer type
of a width of at least N bits,
N being the value specified in its type name.
According to the C language standard, they shall be
capable of storing values in the range
.RB [ INT_LEAST N _MIN ,
.BR INT_LEAST N _MAX ],
substituting N by the appropriate number.
.PP
The length modifiers for the
.IR int_least N _t
types for the
.BR printf (3)
family of functions
are expanded by macros of the forms
.BR PRIdLEAST N
and
.BR PRIiLEAST N
(defined in
.IR <inttypes.h> );
resulting for example in
.B %"PRIdLEAST64"
or
.B %"PRIiLEAST64"
for printing
.I int_least64_t
values.
The length modifiers for the
.IR int_least N _t
types for the
.BR scanf (3)
family of functions
are expanded by macros of the forms
.BR SCNdLEAST N
and
.BR SCNiLEAST N,
(defined in
.IR <inttypes.h> );
resulting for example in
.B %"SCNdLEAST8"
or
.B %"SCNiLEAST8"
for scanning
.I int_least8_t
values.

Conforming to:
C99 and later; POSIX.1-2001 and later.
