Union

Union has members of different data types, but can hold data of only one member at a time. The different members share the same memory location. The total memory allocated to the union is equal to the maximum size of the member. #include <stdio.h> union marks {     float percent;     char grade; }; int main ( ) {     union marks student1;     student1.percent = 98.5;     printf( "Marks are %f   address is %16lu\n", student1.percent, &student1.percent);     student1.grade = 'A';     printf( "Grade is %c address is %16lu\n", student1.grade, &student1.grade); } Marks are 98.500000 address is 2293620 Grade is A address is 2293620
