Memory representation of int in c

Memory representation of unsigned int:

Total size of unsigned int: 16 bit

Those eight bits are use as:
Data bit: 16

Example:

(1)Memory representation of:

unsigned int a=7;          (In Turbo c compiler)

unsigned short int a=7 (Both turbo c and Linux gcc compiler)

Binary equivalent of data 7 in 16 bit:  00000000 00000111

Data bit: 00000000 00000111

First eight bit of data bit from right side i.e. 00000111 will store in the leftmost byte from right to left side and rest eight bit of data bit i.e. 00000000 will store in rightmost byte from right to left side as shown in the following figure:
