3 Keyword in C
DATATYPE IN C

 Data types in c used for declaring variables or functions


of different types.

 The type of a variable determines how much space it


occupies in storage.

 A data type specifies the type of data that a variable


can store.
 There are 4 types of data types in C language.
Basic Data Types

 The basic data types are integer-based and


floating-point based.

 The memory size of basic data types may change


according to 32 or 64 bit operating system.
Type Storage size Value range

char 1 byte -128 to 127 or 0 to 255

int 2 bytes −32,768 to 32,767

float 4 byte 1.2E-38 to 3.4E+38

double 8 byte 2.3E-308 to 1.7E+308


 Example….

#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
int a = 4000; // positive integer data type
float b = 5.2324; // float data type
char c = 'Z'; // char data type
int f = -185; // -ve integer data type
double i = 4.1234567890; // double float data type
float j = -3.55; // float data type
}
 Program :

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{

printf("Storage size for int is: %d \n", sizeof(int));


printf("Storage size for char is: %d \n", sizeof(char));
printf("Storage size for int is: %d \n", sizeof(float));
printf("Storage size for char is: %d \n", sizeof(double));

return 0;
}
 OUTPUT
VARIABLES IN C
 A variable is a name of memory location.

 A variable is used to store data.

 Its value can be changed and it can be reused


many times.
Rules for defining variables

 A variable can have alphabets, digits and underscore.


(a-z, A-Z, 0-9, _)

 A variable name can start with alphabet and


underscore only.

 It can't start with digit.

 No white space is allowed within variable name.

 A variable name must not be any reserved word or


keyword e.g. int, float etc.
Syntax to declare a variable.

type variable_name;

Example of declaring variable.

➢ int a;
➢ float b;
➢ char c;
KEYWORDS IN C
 A keyword is a reserved word.

 You cannot use it as a variable name.

 There are 32 reserved words (keywords) in C


language.
