Data types

AIDPT programming offers a diversity of basic data types and also some advanced types that relate to specific data structures. It's good to know that since the project has not reached yet its final stage and a lot of work is still due to be fulfilled, there is, of course, possible for the keywords set to be extended according to the further requirements.

Data types

Basic types
- Integer data types
  - unsigned int , 16 bits representation { 0 - 65,535 }
  - int , 16 bits representation { -32,768 - 32,767 }
  - unsigned char , 8 bits representation { 0 - 255 }
  - char , 8 bits representation { -128 - 127 }
- Real number data types
  - float , 32 bits representation { 3.4 * (10**-38) - 3.4 * (10**+38) }
Extended types
- Image types
  - Image , used for handeling a color image in AIDPT
  - GrayImage , used for handeling a grayscale image in AIDPT
- Sound types

Another keyword is void that specifies an empty data type.
