Using typedef you define new names of exisiting data types. This does not create a new physical datatype but is simply new name of calling existing typedef. Typedef helps in making code portable and more readable.

Code -

typedef int A;
typedef A B;
void function (void)
{
A a = 10;
B b; \\ A and B both created an int variable.

}
