There are many data types in C language. A C programmer has to use appropriate data type as per his requirement.

C language data types can be broadly classified as
Primary data type
Derived data type
User-defined data type

hi sharad :-
The data type defines:

1. the amount of storage allocated to variables.
2. the values that they can accept.
3. the operations that can be performed on variables.
C language data types, Primary data type, Integer Type, Floating Point Types, Void Type, Character Type, Size and Range of Data Types on 16 bit machine, derived data type, Declaration of Variables, User defined type declaration, Declaration of Storage Class, auto, static, extern, register, Defining Symbolic Constants, Declaring Variable as Constant and Volatile Variable

A C language programmer has to tell the system before-hand, the type of numbers or characters he is using in his program. These are data types. There are many data types in C language. A C programmer has to use appropriate data type as per his requirement.

hello singh C has a concept of 'data types' which are used to define a variable before its use.
The definition of a variable will assign storage for the variable and define the type of data that will be held in the location.
and different data types are int float double char void enum

Hi sharad

C has a concept of 'data types' which are used to define a variable before its use.

The definition of a variable will assign storage for the variable and define the type of data that will be held in the location.

The list of data type in C are given below-
1.int -int is used to define integer numbers.
2.float -float is used to define floating point numbers.
3.double -double is used to define BIG floating point numbers. It reserves twice the storage for the number. On PCs this is likely to be 8 bytes
4.char -char defines characters

well,For each variable you have to attach some data type.

The data type defines:

1. the amount of storage allocated to variables.
2. the values that they can accept.
3. the operations that can be performed on variables.

So what data types are available?

int float double char void enum
note that there is not a boolean data type. C does not have the traditional view about logical comparison, but thats another story.
Recent C++ compilers do have a boolean datatype.
