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.

Difference between built in data type and user-defined datatype?

A built in data type is a framework's native data type. By default you'd probably have some built in generic data types, such as integer, string, boolean and so on. In the other hand sometimes you can extend the framework's data types, by programminga user-defined data type. In this data type you have to define it's behaviour and structure, and once defined, you can use it the same way you use the default data types. In PostgreSQL or Oracle, you can define data types. You can read about it on their webs.

What are the properties of data types?

When we enter a variable then we know it what type it belong ,but the compiler does not know it ,for knowing it we declare data types. Storage representations & machine instructions to handle constants differ from machine to machine.The variety of data types available allow the programmer to select the type appropriate to the needs of the application as well as the machine. ANSI C supports 3 types of data types 1.Primary data types 2.Derived data types 3.User defined data types JAVA has 2 types 1.In Built data types 2.User Defined datatypes
