⟩ Explain what are the Sizes and ranges of the Basic C++ data types?
Following table is with respect to a 16-bit word machine:
Type Bytes Range
char 1 -128 to 127
unsigned char 1 0 to 255
signed char 1 -128 to 127
int 2 -32768 to 32767
unsigned int 2 0 to 65535
signed int 2 2 -32768 to 32767
short int 2 2 -32768 to 32767
unsigned short int 2 0 to 65535
signed short int 2 -32768 to 32767
long int 4 4 -2147483648 to 2147483647
signed long int 4 -2147483648 to 2147483647
