This is a good overview:http://reference.jumpingmonkey.org/programming_languages/objective-c/types.html
or run this code

When run on an iPhone 3GS (iPod Touch and older iPhones should yield the same result) you get:
Primitive sizes:
The size of a char is: 1 . The size of short is: 2 . The size of int is: 4 . The size of long is: 4 . The size of long long is: 8 . The size of a unsigned char is: 1 . The size of unsigned short is: 2 . The size of unsigned int is: 4 . The size of unsigned long is: 4 . The size of unsigned long long is: 8 . The size of a float is: 4 . The size of a double is 8 .
