Answer 1

Format specifier used with unsigned long int is %lu. You are using %llu, which is format specifier for unsigned long long int. The behavior of your code is undefined.

You need to decide what it is you are trying to do. Either use the correct format specifier (to match the type), or use the right type (to match the format specifier).
