Data Types in C++

While composing a program in any language, you will need to apply several variables to stock all those information. Variables are emptiness but supplied memory locations to stock the values. It means that when you establish a variable you supply some spaces in the memory.

You maybe like to stock the information of various data types like integer, floating points, double floating points, character, wide character, boolean, etc. Depending on the data types of variables, the operating system assigned memory and make decisions about what can be stocked in the supply memory.

Primitive Build-it Types

C++ allows the programmer a lot of classification of built-in as well as user-defined data types. The following table lists seven basic data types in C++:

Type	Keyword
Boolean	bool
Character	char
Floating point	float
Double floating point	double
Integer	int
Valueless	void
Wide character	wchar_t

Many basic data types of Cplusplus can be modified by using one or more of these type modifiers:

• signed
• unsigned
• short
• long

The table below shows the types of variables, how much that memory takes to store the value in it, and what is the minimum and maximum value that can be stored in such types of variables.
