alignment
Most data types are subject to specific alignment requirements depending on the current platform. In memory, fields of this type must start at addresses that are divisible by 2, 4, 8, or 16. In a structure or substructure, the component with the highest alignment requirement determines the alignment of the entire structure, where alignment gaps are created before or after components with alignment requirements.
