- A char holds an integer value. Examples:
-
- char coal = 32;
- char woman = 16;
-
- >b. int
-
- An int holds a numeric value. Examples:
-
- int pi = 3.14159;
- int i = sqrt(-1);
-
- >c. float
-
- A float variable can change during execution. Examples:
-
- float f = 1, g = 3;
-
- f = g; /* assigns g to f, causing f to 'float' */
-
- >d. long int
-
- A long int has more digits than an int. Examples:
-
- long int ten = 00000012;
- long int hex = 0x15;
-
- You can enter a long using "0x" to mean hex.
-
- >e. unsigned int
-
- An unsigned int is one written without the + or - signs.
-
- Examples:
-
- unsigned int three = 1 / 3;
- unsigned int mult = 2 * 4;

- Hope This Helps!
