Data type of the variable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The size of the memory space allocated for a variable depends on the data type of the variable. For example, a variable of type int will be allocated 4 bytes of memory, while a variable of type float will be allocated 8 bytes of memory.<\/p>\n<p>The length of the variable name does not affect the size of the memory space allocated for the variable. The location of the variable in the program also does not affect the size of the memory space allocated for the variable.
