The type string is most suitable

Serena Whitney · Answer 2

The correct answer is data type string.

Explanation:

Numeric data types (int, float, double, etc) are not suitable because you cannot incluse letters, just numbers. For example.

int x = 124320 is valid

int x = 12a45re is not valid.

The data type string is the one that allows the combination of numbers and letters. For example

char password[] = "bills2019" is valid

So the correct answer is data type string.
