Q1. What is the size of a variable?

Answer: When you declare a variable, memory is allocated for that variable. For example char variable takes 1 byte of memory while an int variable consumes two bytes.

Note how much int will occupy memory space is platform dependent. For example, Turbo C++ is DOS based program allocates 2 bytes to an int variable. While visual c++ 6.0 compiler meant for 32-bit Windows applications, allocates 4 bytes to an int variable.
