  2. C data types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_data_types

    char * pc [10]; // array of 10 elements of 'pointer to char' char (* pa)[10]; // pointer to a 10-element array of char The element pc requires ten blocks of memory of the size of pointer to char (usually 40 or 80 bytes on common platforms), but element pa is only one pointer (size 4 or 8 bytes), and the data it refers to is an array of ten ...

  3. Bitwise operations in C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operations_in_C

    For instance, working with a byte (the char type): 11001000 & 10111000 -------- = 10001000 The most significant bit of the first number is 1 and that of the second number is also 1 so the most significant bit of the result is 1; in the second most significant bit, the bit of second number is zero, so we have the result as 0.

  4. Primitive data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_data_type

    1 byte 8 bits Byte, octet, minimum size of char in C99( see limits.h CHAR_BIT) −128 to +127 0 to 255 2 bytes 16 bits x86 word, minimum size of short and int in C −32,768 to +32,767 0 to 65,535 4 bytes 32 bits x86 double word, minimum size of long in C, actual size of int for most modern C compilers, [8] pointer for IA-32-compatible processors

  5. C string handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_string_handling

    Each string ends at the first occurrence of the zero code unit of the appropriate kind (char or wchar_t).Consequently, a byte string (char*) can contain non-NUL characters in ASCII or any ASCII extension, but not characters in encodings such as UTF-16 (even though a 16-bit code unit might be nonzero, its high or low byte might be zero).

  6. Escape sequences in C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_sequences_in_C

    Sequence \n maps to one byte, despite the fact that the platform may use more than one byte to denote a newline, such as the DOS/Windows CRLF sequence, 0x0D 0x0A. The translation from 0x0A to 0x0D 0x0A on DOS and Windows occurs when the byte is written out to a file or to the console, and the inverse translation is done when text files are read.

  7. sizeof - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sizeof

    For example, even though most implementations of C and C++ on 32-bit systems define type int to be four octets, this size may change when code is ported to a different system, breaking the code. The exception to this is the data type char, which always has the size 1 in any standards-compliant C implementation

  8. Data structure alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

    A long double (eight bytes with Visual C++, sixteen bytes with GCC) will be 8-byte aligned with Visual C++ and 16-byte aligned with GCC. Any pointer (eight bytes) will be 8-byte aligned. Some data types are dependent on the implementation. Here is a structure with members of various types, totaling 8 bytes before compilation:

  9. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    For example, the capital letter A is represented in 7 bits as 100 0001 2, 0x41 (101 8) , the numeral 2 is 011 0010 2 0x32 (62 8), the character } is 111 1101 2 0x7D (175 8), and the Control character RETURN is 000 1101 2 0x0D (15 8). In contrast, most computers store data in memory organized in eight-bit bytes. Files that contain machine ...
