W8071: Conversion may lose significant digits (C++)

(Command-line option to display warning: -wsig) 

For an assignment operator or some other circumstance, your source file requires a conversion from a larger integral data type to a smaller integral data type where the conversion exists. 

Because the integral data type variables don't have the same size, this kind of conversion might alter the behavior of a program.
