title: what is the difference between uint16_t and unsigned short int incase of 64 bit processor?
body: <p>I came to use a variable of type <code>uint16_t</code>, but am unable to use that data type because of my project limitations. Is it possible to <code>unsigned short int</code> instead of <code>uint16_t</code>?
  I don't know the difference between both of them. Could anybody clarify please?</p>
