Summary
Again, whew!
In this chapter, there were a lot of details about data types, chunk sizes, and value ranges. The key idea from this chapter is to remember that there are only really five data types: integers, real numbers, characters, Booleans, and pointers. Additionally, characters and Booleans can be considered special cases of integers. The fifth type, the pointer, is really just another special case of an integer, but with some specialized operations and implicit behavior.
In the next chapter, we will explore how to use these different types of values when we create and assign values.
