What will be the output of the program?
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
char huge *near *far *ptr1;
char near *far *huge *ptr2;
char far *huge *near *ptr3;
printf("%d, %d, %d\n", sizeof(ptr1), sizeof(*ptr2), sizeof(**ptr3));
return 0;
}

Any pointer will take size 4bits in 64 bit compiler, 2 bits in 32 bit compiler.

near-2bit ...far and huge-4bit
far:sizeof(ptr1)-4 ... huge:sizeof(*ptr2)-4.... if it is
near:sizeof(*ptr3)-2 but here is near:sizeof(**ptr3)-4
far:sizeof(ptr1)-4 ... huge:sizeof(*ptr2)-4.... if it is
near:sizeof(*ptr3)-2 but here is near:sizeof(**ptr3)-4

ptr1 is a pointer to a far pointer for that the size is 4 in 32 and 64 bit compiler.
ptr2 is a pointer to a huge pointer for that the size is 4 in 32 and 64 bit compiler.
ptr3 is a pointer to a near pointer for that the size is 2 in 32 bit and 4 in 64 bit compiler.
ptr2 is a pointer to a huge pointer for that the size is 4 in 32 and 64 bit compiler.
ptr3 is a pointer to a near pointer for that the size is 2 in 32 bit and 4 in 64 bit compiler.
