[C/C++] unsigned long lala = -1;

Nikoli.

zakja pa ne :)

const unsigned int uint32_max = -1;

so pa seveda tudi lepšejši načini

zdej ne vem kako je sz standardom ampak dotične implementacije std-ja imajo razne limits, numeric_limits template (dinkumware, hp, itd...). no, devc++ inu msvc7 imata tudi limits.h, ampak guess what :)
