Data classification

Here’s a broad definition of data types followed by the definitions of integer, float, and string:


Data Type (Broadly Defined):


A data type is a classification that specifies the kind of value a variable can hold and what operations can be performed on it. It helps the computer understand how the data should be stored, interpreted, and processed.


-1. Integer (int):


An integer is a data type that represents whole numbers without any fractional or decimal part.

Examples: -3, 0, 42, 1000


-2. Float (floating-point):


A float is a data type used to represent real numbers that have a decimal point.

Examples: 3.14, -0.001, 100.0


--3. String (str):


A string is a sequence of characters used to represent text. It can include letters, numbers, symbols, and spaces, and is usually enclosed in quotation marks.

Examples: "Hello", "123", "OpenAI GPT-4"


Let me know if you want examples in a specific programming language.
