* GLib defines a number of commonly used types, which can be divided
- * into 4 groups:
+ * into several groups:
* - New types which are not part of standard C (but are defined in
- * various C standard library header files) - #gboolean, #gsize,
- * #gssize, #goffset, #gintptr, #guintptr.
+ * various C standard library header files) — #gboolean, #gssize.
* - Integer types which are guaranteed to be the same size across
- * all platforms - #gint8, #guint8, #gint16, #guint16, #gint32,
+ * all platforms — #gint8, #guint8, #gint16, #guint16, #gint32,
* #guint32, #gint64, #guint64.
* - Types which are easier to use than their standard C counterparts -
* #gpointer, #gconstpointer, #guchar, #guint, #gushort, #gulong.
* - Types which correspond exactly to standard C types, but are
- * included for completeness - #gchar, #gint, #gshort, #glong,
+ * included for completeness — #gchar, #gint, #gshort, #glong,

* GLib also defines macros for the limits of some of the standard
* integer and floating point types, as well as macros for suitable
