In C programming, a data type is a classification that specifies which type of value a variable
can hold. Primitive data types are the basic building blocks of data representation in C. They
include:
1. int: This data type is used to store integer values. It typically occupies 4 bytes of memory
(32 bits) on most systems. The range of values it can represent depends on the underlying
architecture, but commonly ranges from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647. The format
specifier for `int` is `%d`.
2. char: Used to store a single character. It typically occupies 1 byte of memory. The range of
values it can represent depends on whether it's signed or unsigned, but commonly ranges
from -128 to 127 or 0 to 255. The format specifier for `char` is `%c`.
3. float: Used to store single-precision floating-point numbers. It typically occupies 4 bytes of
memory. The range of values it can represent is approximately from 1.2E-38 to 3.4E+38. The
format specifier for `float` is `%f`.
4. double: Used to store double-precision floating-point numbers. It typically occupies 8
bytes of memory. The range of values it can represent is approximately from 2.3E-308 to
1.7E+308. The format specifier for `double` is `%lf`.
5. _Bool: Used to store Boolean values, which can be either true or false. It typically occupies 1
byte of memory. The format specifier for `_Bool` is `%d` when printing (0 for false, 1 for
true).
These primitive data types vary in terms of memory occupied, range of values they can
represent, and the format specifiers used for input and output operations. Understanding
these characteristics is essential for efficient and correct programming in C.
