8C. the simple type (CHAR/INT/LONG)
-----------------------------------
The simple types CHAR (8bit) and INT (16bit) may not be used as types
for a basic (single) variable; the reason for this must be clear by now.
However they may be used as data type to build ARRAYs from, set PTRs to,
use in the definition of OBJECTs etc. See those for examples.
