Programming[1]

Data type determines what sort of data is being stored and how it will be used by the program. In computer science and computer programming, a data type or simply type is an attribute of data which tells the compiler or interpreter how the programmer intends to use the data [2].

Primitive data types are typically types that are built-in or basic to a language implementation.[3]
