Sata type is nothing but a way to declare any variable of that kind. It can be explain by a statement. Eg: Int x; float y; char z; Here x is a variable of type int (integer).where x assign a value which is of integer type.i.e x=5 & not x=5.012. Because x is of integer type . This value is assign by variable y. Here y=5.012 is possible as y is of floating point number . Similarly, z='a' or z="my self" can be a type of character which stores single caracter or many characters in ("-")format syntactically.
