There you go, this might help you out

CHAR: Maximum size is up to 2000

VARCHAR2: up to 4000

NUMBER: I think, maximum can be up to 40 digits plus space for a decimal point and sign

LONG: up to 2GB in length

DATE: you can put any dates from January 1, 4712 BC to December 31, 4712 AD

FLOAT: same as a number

Hope it helps
