Range of values in C Int and Long 32 – 64 bits

In C and C++ you have these least requirements (i.e actual implementations can have larger magnitudes)

signed char: -2^07+1 to +2^07-1
short:       -2^15+1 to +2^15-1
int:         -2^15+1 to +2^15-1
long:        -2^31+1 to +2^31-1
long long:   -2^63+1 to +2^63-1

Now, on particular implementations, you have a variety of bit ranges. The wikipedia article describes this nicely.
