Why long long for a mobile number?
It is too big for int.
Remember
| typedef old_type new_name; |
| Same type, easier name |
Tired of typing long long? Give it a nickname. A mobile number is too big for int. Typedef names long long as Mobile. It is a new name, not a new type. Typedef, old type, new name. Same type, easier name.
