size of char in c code example
Example 1: how maany bytes in an int in C
[8-bit] signed char: -127 to 127
[8-bit] unsigned char: 0 to 255
[16-bit]signed short: -32767 to 32767
[16-bit]unsigned short: 0 to 65535
[32-bit]signed long: -2147483647 to 2147483647
[32-bit]unsigned long: 0 to 4294967295
[64-bit]signed long long: -9223372036854775807 to 9223372036854775807
[64-bit]unsigned long long: 0 to 18446744073709551615
Example 2: length of a char array in c
char chararray[10];
size_t len = strlen(chararray);
Example 3: c print sizeof char
char b = 'b';
printf("the size of b is %d",sizeof(b));
Example 4: c variable types
char 1 byte -128 to 127 or 0 to 255
unsigned char 1 byte 0 to 255
signed char 1 byte -128 to 127
int 2 or 4 bytes -32,768 to 32,767 or -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
unsigned int 2 or 4 bytes 0 to 65,535 or 0 to 4,294,967,295
short 2 bytes -32,768 to 32,767
unsigned short 2 bytes 0 to 65,535
long 8 bytes or (4bytes for 32 bit OS) -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807
unsigned long 8 bytes 0 to 18446744073709551615
Example 5: how manz bytes int
An int has a size of 4 bytes
