Which of the following special symbol allowed in a variable name?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Variable names in C are made up of letters (upper and lower case) and digits. The underscore character ("_") is also permitted. Names must not begin with a digit.
Examples of valid (but not very descriptive) C variable names:
=> foo
=> Bar
=> BAZ
=> foo_bar
=> _foo42
=> _
=> QuUx

To @Sudi as per me,
We cannot use any other symbol except (_) and always variable name starts with a letter or (_) after any one of this we can use digits.

The identifiers can start with the $ and _.
But they cannot start with the Digits like 0123456789.

@Sachin.
it means that variable name can contain only 32 characters not more than it system depend means it is dependent on system that how many character system will allow.
Ex. Assume that one system allow 32 char. Other allow 28.
So i hope YOu understand.
