Hi,
From memory 65536 is 2**16, but in 16 bits the max. integer that can be stored is only 65535 or 2**16 - 1.
A bit like the max integer using two digits is 99 and not 100 or 10**2.
Am I right or are you wrong??
Taxation as a means of achieving prosperity is like a man standing inside a bucket trying to lift himself up.
