Computer memory … large array of consecutive data cells or bytes
- 1 byte = 8 bits =
0x00 … 0xFF
char … 1 byte int,float … 4 bytes double … 8 bytes
When a variable is declared, the operating system finds a place in
memory to store the appropriate number of bytes.
It is convenient to print memory addresses in Hexadecimal notation
