A project for COURSENAME by YOUR NAME during the SEMESTER YEAR.

This project was begun on DATE and is anticipated to take TIME UNIT to complete. Project was completed on MONTH DAY, YEAR.

State the purpose of this project. What is the point of this project? What do we hope to accomplish by undertaking it?

In order to successfully accomplish/perform this project, the listed resources/experiences need to be consulted/achieved:

• ability to log into Lab46
• ability to edit text files
• ability to compile C source code
• ability to read and appropriately react to compiler messages during compilation
• ability to execute compiled code
• knowledge of the size of a byte, how many combinations are possible therein

To determine the possible values for each data type

This project will be exploring the nature of some of the data types available to us in the C Programming Language. How much space is allocated to each type, how many numbers can exist within each type, and what are the ranges available for each type?

A program will be written that will display (to STDOUT) the size (in bytes), the lower and upper bounds of each studied type, and display the total quantity of values possible with each type.

The data types covered for this project will include:

• unsigned char
• signed char
• unsigned short int
• signed short int
• unsigned int
• signed int
• unsigned long int
• signed long int
• unsigned long long int
• signed long long int

The sizeof() and printf() functions, as well as arithmetic operators, will be utilized in performing much of the work.
