● (^) Java is a strongly typed language, meaning variables must be declared with a specific type before they can be used ● (^) Variables contain data that can be used in a Java program ● (^) There are 8 primitive data types in Java: byte, short, int, long, float, double, char, Boolean.
● (^) Byte - 8 bit integer (-128 to 127) ● (^) Short - 16 bit integer (-32,768 to 32,767) ● (^) Int - 32 bit integer (-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647) ● (^) Long - 64 bit integer ● (^) Float - 32 bit floating point ● (^) Double - 64 bit floating point ● (^) Char - 16 bit Unicode character ● (^) Boolean - true or false
● (^) Java is a strongly typed language with 8 primitive data types ● (^) Variables must be declared before use with a specific type ● (^) The final keyword can be used to create constants ● (^) Choosing the right data type for a variable is important for efficiency and accuracy
