For C/C++ Students:-

Mostly Student practicing C/C++ on Old Turbo C/C++ IDE/Compilers that is based on 16-bit platform because early 90's the MS-Dos is 16-bit OS and Turbo C/C++ version 1.01 and 3.01 both are commonly used in Universities/Colleges/Institutes Labs and Home. Now a days 32-bit is most common and 64-bit is also available so why we are stuck on this type of product.

What is 32-bit and 64-bit:-

In the personal computing world, 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the type of central processing unit, operating system, driver, software program, etc. that utilizes that particular architecture.
32-bit hardware and software is often referred to as x86 or x86-32. 64-bit hardware and software is often referred to as x64 or x86-64.
32-bit systems utilize data in 32-bit pieces while 64-bit systems utilize data in 64-bit pieces. In general, the more data that can be processed at once, the faster the system can operate. There are several other advantages to a 64-bit system as well, most practically the ability to use significantly greater amounts of physical memory.
Most new processors today are based on the 64-bit architecture and support 64-bit operating systems. These processors are also fully compatible with 32-bit operating systems.
