Its showing in my comp that limit of long long is 9223372036854775807, but then it's showing too large when i declare it like this:
long long num;
i don't want to store in array.
My seniors told that long long will do but i am having trouble.

a) post what you actually tried, not a description.
b) post your actual error messages
c) tell us what your OS/Compiler is.

From this thread I would suggest you to use: unsigned long long

>can long long store 12 digit numbers.
Depends on what your compiler is...

this is my code. Problem as described above.
We have to find largest prime factor of a number.
C++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. #include<iostream>
  2. using namespace std;
  3. int main()
  4. {
  5.  
  6. 	long long num=600851475143,large,k,i;
  7.  
  8. 	for(i=2;;++i)
  9. 	{  k=i;
  10. 		if(num%i==0)
  11. 		{	num/=i;
  12. 			i=k-1;
  13. 			large=k;
  14. 		}
  15. 	   if(num==1)
  16. 		   break;
  17. 	}
  18. cout<<large;
  19. return 0;
  20. }
the error i get is:
integer constant is too large for ‘long’ type
i don't want to use array.

>i don't want to use array.
In that case there's probably no other choice left than choosing for a Big Number library like GNU MP, it can handle much bigger numbers than a standard C++ datatype can...

And take a look at Salem's post as well:
  • What is your compiler?
  • What is your OS?

Try to append LL suffix to long long constants.

Try
long long num=600851475143LL,large,k,i;
to tell the compiler that the constant is a long long.
