Question
Why is char often treated as an integer data type?
Solution
Character data type accepts and returns all valid ASCII characters. The character data type is often said to be an integer type since all the characters are represented in memory by their associated ASCII Codes. If a variable is declared as char, C++ allows storing either a character or an integer value.
