short
Description
A short is a 16-bit data-type.
On the 86Duino, a short stores a 16-bit (2-byte) value. This yields a range of -32,768 to 32,767 (minimum value of -2^15 and a maximum value of (2^15) – 1).
Example
short ledPin = 13;
Syntax
short var = val;
var – your short variable name
val – the value you assign to that variable
