Hello,
Seems like a typo is in there.
Don't tink so. Integral type is used in the C standard to mean any
type containing whole numbers. This is to avoid confusion beteen int
(the specific type) and integer (a type with specific properties).
Well, actualy C99 has left this distinction and uses 'integer' types
indeed. But ANSI C speaks about 'integral' types vs 'floating' types.
I would follow ISO C99 terminology. 'Integral' to me associated with
algebra mostly.
