It depends entirely on what platform you are using.
In an embedded environment, for instance
global/static variables go into different RAM memory segments depending on whether or not they are initialised.
constants are often left in ROM
automatic variables are normally placed of the stack of the currently running task but not always.
* These are all implementation defined. Access to `register' specified indentifiers should be as fast as possible, so the compiler may place the value in a machine register. However, the compiler is free to treat a `register' declaration as an `auto' declaration. * Where free memory is maintained is an OS specific concept. Instructions are generally stored in code segement. Local Variables are stored in Stack. Register variables are stored in Register. Global & static variables are stored in data segment. The memory created dynamically are stored in Heap And the C program instructions get stored in code segment.
Only global/static variables are, local variables aren't.
AnswerLocal Variables are stored in Stack. Register variables are stored in Register. Global variables are stored in data segment. The memory created dynamically are stored in Heap And the C program instructions get stored in code segment and the extern variables also stored in data segment. Nooo NoooStatic variable will be stored in .BSS segment... (Block Started By Symbol)
For global/static variables: yes.For auto variables: no.
Java does not have the concept of Reference Variables. We cannot access the memory location where the data is stored in Java.
They is not.
Main memory (RAM).

Global variables can be seen in all blocks of your program, when local variables are visible only within the block where it's declared.
Global variables can have any value, in C they are aumaticatically initialized to zero.
For global/static variables: yes.For auto variables: no.
Auto variables are stored on the stack alongside all other local variables.
The ones that are declared outside any functions and don't have modifier static.
Java does not have the concept of Reference Variables. We cannot access the memory location where the data is stored in Java.
