[edit] Notes

The types of these constants, other than CHAR_BIT and MB_LEN_MAX, are required to match the results of the integral promotions as applied to objects of the types they describe: CHAR_MAX may have type int or unsigned int, but never char. Similarly USHRT_MAX may not be of an unsigned type: its type may be int.

A freestanding implementation may lack std::sig_atomic_t and/or std::wint_t typedef names, in which case the SIG_ATOMIC_* and/or WINT_* macros are correspondingly absent.

[edit] Example

Run this code
#include <climits>
#include <cstdint>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    constexpr int w = 14;
    std::cout << std::left;
#   define COUT(x) std::cout << std::setw(w) << #x << " = " << x << '\n'
 
    COUT( CHAR_BIT       );
    COUT( MB_LEN_MAX     );
    COUT( CHAR_MIN       );
    COUT( CHAR_MAX       );
    COUT( SCHAR_MIN      );
    COUT( SHRT_MIN       );
    COUT( INT_MIN        );
    COUT( LONG_MIN       );
    COUT( LLONG_MIN      );
    COUT( SCHAR_MAX      );
    COUT( SHRT_MAX       );
    COUT( INT_MAX        );
    COUT( LONG_MAX       );
    COUT( LLONG_MAX      );
    COUT( UCHAR_MAX      );
    COUT( USHRT_MAX      );
    COUT( UINT_MAX       );
    COUT( ULONG_MAX      );
    COUT( ULLONG_MAX     );
    COUT( PTRDIFF_MIN    );
    COUT( PTRDIFF_MAX    );
    COUT( SIZE_MAX       );
    COUT( SIG_ATOMIC_MIN );
    COUT( SIG_ATOMIC_MAX );
    COUT( WCHAR_MIN      );
    COUT( WCHAR_MAX      );
    COUT( WINT_MIN       );
    COUT( WINT_MAX       );
}

CHAR_BIT       = 8
MB_LEN_MAX     = 16

[edit] Limits of floating-point types

FLT_DECIMAL_DIGDBL_DECIMAL_DIGLDBL_DECIMAL_DIG
(C++17)
 conversion from float/double/long double to decimal with at least FLT_DECIMAL_DIG/DBL_DECIMAL_DIG/LDBL_DECIMAL_DIG digits and back is the identity conversion: this is the decimal precision required to serialize/deserialize a floating-point value (see also std::numeric_limits::max_digits10).

[edit] Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior
LWG 416 C++98 it was unclear whether the types of the macros in <climits> are guaranteed
to match the type to which they refer (C++ refers to C, and C says no) 		clarified as not
guaranteed
