Malik Hamza Nawaz Then my previous answer should be 4 and Ipang answered that in the thread Mentioned above.
generally it is 2 with pointer 4 as @sayan mentioned

It's not about in SoloLearn quiz or other place. Size of a type depends on language, compiler implementation (for compiled languages), and system architecture (a 16, 32 or 64bit machine).
I think you may need to specify a relevant language in your thread tags, just to improve context clarity 👍

In regards to C or C++, the standards does not specify a strict definition. IIRC there is however a specification that defines that (cmiiw) size of
char < short < int <= long < long long
When it comes to size of integral types family.
P.S. It is highly recommended to rely on `sizeof` operator rather than assumptions on type sizes : )

Although I am not exactly sure, but considering today's demands of the SoloLearn platform, I would guess it uses 64bit machines. 32bit machines serving millions of users may require more work. 16bit machines may not even be capable.
Still, would you mind specify a language in tags above?☝
You can dry run a code in SoloLearn ide. Use sizeof() to get your answer.
Although it depends on the question contributor. Generally now a days we use 4 byte for int.
