Objects in C language

Question

Wheneven I go through some tutorials/notes for C, I quite come across the term \"objects\". I was always wondering what does the object got to do with the procedural languag

Answer 1

In the C standard at least, an "object" is roughly a piece of data occupying contiguous memory. So int, long, float, pointer variables are all objects, as well as arrays or structs or arrays of structs, or data in malloc'd chunks of memory.
