Answer 1

What is the type of the variable x? uint8_t *x[256]?

Answer: unsigned 8-bit integer.

In C language uint8_t is used to represent the unsigned 8-bit integer type.

If we represent any variable with unit8_t, then it's should be exactly 8 bits.
But that variable may not occupy that much space. The space required is depends on below factors:

• Weather it is a global or local variable.
• Is it a functional orgument.
• Is it a part of array
• Is it a return value
  

the unsigned 8-bit integer type.
