Storing short integers in C - Qomplainerz - 07-26-2023
Description:
In C, the short int data type is used to represent integer values with a smaller range than regular int. It is a signed integer type that typically occupies 2 bytes in memory, which means it has a smaller range of representable values compared to a regular int.
Example:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
// Declare and initialize a short int variable
short int myShortInt = 32767;
// Print the value of the short int variable
printf("Value of myShortInt: %d\n", myShortInt);
return 0;
}
Explanation:
Explanation: In this example, we declare a short int variable called myShortInt and initialize it with the value 32767. The %d format specifier is used in printf to print the value of the short int variable.
