Data Types such as INT, BOOL, and REAL.

3 The range of file number supported by each Data Type is 0 to 253 for INT, 0 to 253 for REAL, and
0 to 999 for BOOL.
Continue to create 2 tags: one with Name of b and Data Type of REAL and the other with name
of c and Data Type of BOOL, as shown below:

range is to 999 at max.
