Try:
> 8*4
[1] 32
As per the help page for .Machine:
sizeof.pointer the number of *bytes* in a C SEXP type.
So:
8 bits per byte * 4 bytes = 32 bits

Dear Prof. B.Ripley,
If :
.Machine$sizeof.pointer
[1] 4
2*2*2*2
[1] 16
So I am running with 16 bits?
How can I know the number of bits supported on my machine?
Kindly,
