hey there is your answer......
In computer science and computer programming, a data type or simply type is a classification of data which tells the compileror interpreter how the programmer intends to use the data. Most programming languages support various types of data, for example:real, integer or Boolean. A data type provides a set of values from which an expression (i.e. variable, function ...) may take its values. The type defines the operations that can be done on the data, the meaning of the data, and the way values of that type can be stored.
I would be wary of such generalizations. MPLAB is just an IDE - it is suitable for different chips. Microchip has 8-bit controllers like PIC18F, 16-bit and 32-bit controllers. The data types for each may be different and hold serious implications for performance. I.e. for the 8-bit chips the 16 and 32 bit data types may be emulated in software, which isn't always what you want.
