When used with printf, they needs to be casted to integer types explicitly. ### warpSize -The warpSize variable is of type int and contains the warp size (in threads) for the target device. Note that all current Nvidia devices return 32 for this variable, and all current AMD devices return 64.

Note that all current Nvidia devices return 32 for this variable, and current AMD devices return 64 for gfx9 and 32 for gfx10 and above. The warpSize variable should only be used in device functions. Device code should use the warpSize built-in to develop portable wave-aware code. ## Vector Types
