32 bits or 4 bytes.

This depends heavily on the processor architecture your computer uses, AND the programming language you are using.

Typically, an integer is 1 word in length, however that processor architecture defines "word". That could be 32-bits (4 bytes), 64-bits (8 bytes), 8-bits (1 byte), or even 9 bits (in certain old computers).

How many bytes are required to store a number in binary?

The number of bytes required to store a number in binary depends on the size of the number and the data type used. For instance, an 8-bit byte can store values from 0 to 255 (or -128 to 127 if signed). Larger numbers require more bytes: a 16-bit integer uses 2 bytes, a 32-bit integer uses 4 bytes, and a 64-bit integer uses 8 bytes. Thus, the number of bytes needed corresponds to the number of bits needed for the binary representation of the number.

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.

Types of data type?

A data type that can store integer numbers. The details vary depending on the programming language; many language have different integer types to accomodate different sizes. This lets the programmer use a smaller size (and save memory space) when he only needs to store fairly small numbers - and especially when he needs to store LOTS of fairly small numbers, as in an array. Common sizes include 1 byte, 2 bytes, 4 bytes and 8 bytes of storage.

How many bytes are required to store the word intelligent?

The word "intelligent" consists of 11 characters. In standard encoding, such as UTF-8 or ASCII, each character typically requires 1 byte. Therefore, to store the word "intelligent," 11 bytes are required.


How many 32-bit integers can be stored in a 16-byte cache?

A 32-bit integer requires 4 bytes of storage (since 32 bits divided by 8 bits per byte equals 4 bytes). A 16-byte cache can therefore store ( \frac{16 \text{ bytes}}{4 \text{ bytes/integer}} = 4 ) 32-bit integers. Thus, a 16-byte cache can hold a total of 4 32-bit integers.

Why limit file size in FAT32?

FAT32 uses a 32-bit unsigned integer to store the file size, and thus limits each file to 232-1 bytes in size.
