C# Programming - Datatypes - Discussion

@All. This will be helpful to all.

1) sbyte -128 to 127 Signed 8-bit integer
2) byte 0 to 255 Unsigned 8-bit.integer.
3)char U+0000 to U+ffff Unicode 16-bit character.
4) short -32,768 to 32,767 Signed 16-bit integer.
5) ushort 0 to 65,535 Unsigned 16-bit integer.
6) int -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 Signed 32-bit integer.
7) uint 0 to 4,294,967,295 Unsigned 32-bit integer.
8) long -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 Signed 64-bit integer.
9) ulong 0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 Unsigned 64-bit integer.

Byte variables are stored as unsigned 8-bit (1-byte) numbers ranging in value from 0 through 255.

The Byte data type is used for containing binary data.

You are right @Sonal I am confused too, but just see the link hopefully you got the answer.

How this answer can be correct when their is signed and unsigned category?

signed byte = -128 to 127.

unsigned byte = 0 to 255.

No. Its rights. Its talking about only Byte instead of Sbyte (Sbyte store the sign value while byte store only unsigned value.

Byte, ulong, ushort, uint these all datatypes are unsigned datatypes.

A byte in C# is an unsigned 8-bit integer.

Byte integer is not a valid datatype.
