typedef int Intdata; // Intdata is alias name of int

void main()
{
int a=10;
Integerdata b=20;
typedef Intdata Integerdata; // Integerdata is again alias name of Intdata
Integerdata s;
clrscr();
s=a+b;
printf("\n Sum:= %d",s);
getch();
}

In above program Intdata is an user defined name or alias name for an integer data
type.

C - Read & Write Character

All properties of the integer will be applied on Intdata also.

C Control Statements

Integerdata is an alias name to existing user defined name called Intdata.

C - Decision Making Statement
C - If Statement
C - if...else Statement
C - Switch Statement

Note: By using typedef only we can create the alias name and it is under control of compiler.
You can in another example, here myint is alias name for integer data and again smallint is alias
name for myint.

C - Looping Statement
C - While Loop
C - for Loop
C - do-while Loop
