C Program to Find Size of int, float,

double and char of Your System

The size of a character is always 1 byte but, size of int, float and double variables differs from
system to system. This program will compute the size of int , float, double and char of you system
using sizeof operator. The syntax of size of operator is:

temp = sizeof(operand);
/* Here, temp is a variable of type integer,i.e, sizeof()
operator
returns integer value. */

Source Code
/* This program computes the size of variable using sizeof operator.*/
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){
int a;
float b;
double c;
char d;
printf("Size of int: %d bytes\n",sizeof(a));
printf("Size of float: %d bytes\n",sizeof(b));
printf("Size of double: %d bytes\n",sizeof(c));
printf("Size of char: %d byte\n",sizeof(d));
return 0;
}
Output
Size of int: 4 bytes

Size of float: 4 bytes

Size of double: 8 bytes
Size of char: 1 byte
Note: You may get different output depending upon your system.
Explanation
In this program, 4 variables a, b, c and d are declared of type int, float, double and char
respectively. Then, the size of these variables is computed using sizeof operator and displayed.
