Not with 16-bit ints, it doesn't.  240*240 overflows a 16-bit int,
with generally unpredictable results.  Apparently Turbo C treated
the result as -7936, which is what you get on "silent" overflow
on a 2's-complement 16-bit machine.  That's permissible.  As you
noted, forcing the computation to be done using longs avoids the
overflow.
