float usually 4

double usually 8

long is 8 but integer, unlike double

string is a pointer to a memory address containing array of chars, so it doesn't have a fixed size

and a char is usually 1, but i think its 2 in java

What do you mean by long integer and double integer?

Different computer languages use different amounts of memory to store integers. For example, C++ uses a minimum of 4 bytes, Java a min of 8 bytes. A long integer is one which is requires more bytes than the standard amount. When the storage requirement gets to twice the standard amount, the number becomes a double integer.


How many bytes are required to store the name Bill?

4 - one for each character. However, depending on the computer language being used, there is some "overhead" - for example, with "C", the end of a text string is indicated with a null character, so "Bill" would need 5 bytes. Other languages precede strings with their length, the length taking 2, 4 or 8 bytes.
