int is a language keyword, INT is not.

The size and range of values that an int can take is constrained, but not fixed, by the C++ standard.

INT is a data type defined by Windows that is a 4 byte signed integral type with 2's complement.

With a MSVC compiler targetting Windows, it is probably typedeffed or #defined to int, since int in that case has the required characteristics.

Using std::int32_t would be preferable as it's multiplatform, although a compiler does not have to support it.
