Code:

main()
{
     unsigned short x;
     unsigned short y;
     ULONG z;
     z = x * y;
}

what does ulong mean? i know unigned are only positive so the largest is twice as big as a signed, and that int are assumed to be signed if you dont declare them unsigned. and i know that if their short, that it just means their shorter and use less mememory, and the number of bytes they use varies from computers, but what does ulong mean?
