what is the int type limit in c code example

Example 1: c variable types

char	1 byte	-128 to 127 or 0 to 255
unsigned char	1 byte	0 to 255
signed char	1 byte	-128 to 127
int	2 or 4 bytes	-32,768 to 32,767 or -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
unsigned int	2 or 4 bytes	0 to 65,535 or 0 to 4,294,967,295
short	2 bytes	-32,768 to 32,767
unsigned short	2 bytes	0 to 65,535
long	8 bytes or (4bytes for 32 bit OS)	-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807
unsigned long	8 bytes	0 to 18446744073709551615

Example 2: C largest unsigned int

The sizeof function will help you here.
  sizeof(data type) returns a size_t //Number of bytes whatever the input for sizeof takes

Example:
//This statement will return 2 or 4 (depending on your system)
  return sizeof(int)
