I'm afraid I don't have a qualified answer to give, but here's what I've found through a simple search; basically, it is a type that represents wide character, something people came up with to overcome the limitations of ASCII character set, that didn't have support for non latin character sets. I think somehow it is related to Unicode character set, but I could be wrong. Anyways, I hope these links can help to explain even just a bit better : ) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_character http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cwchar/wchar_t/ http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/types http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/wide Hth, cmiiw
