Answer:

  • The amount of memory space to be allocated for a variable is derived by modifiers.
  • Modifiers are prefixed with basic data types to modify (either increase or decrease) the amount of storage space allocated to a variable.
  • For example, storage space for int data type is 4 byte for 32 bit processor. We can increase the range by using long int which is 8 byte. We can decrease the range by using short int which is 2 byte.
