enumerated type
1Enumerated type — In computer programming, an enumerated type is a data type (usually user defined) consisting of a set of named constants called enumerators . The act of creating an enumerated type defines an enumeration. When an identifier such as a variable is… …

3Data type — For other uses, see Data type (disambiguation). In computer programming, a data type is a classification identifying one of various types of data, such as floating point, integer, or Boolean, that determines the possible values for that type; the …
4Algebraic data type — In computer programming, particularly functional programming and type theory, an algebraic data type (sometimes also called a variant type[1]) is a datatype each of whose values is data from other datatypes wrapped in one of the constructors of… …
5Array data type — Not to be confused with Array data structure. In computer science, an array type is a data type that is meant to describe a collection of elements (values or variables), each selected by one or more indices that can be computed at run time by the …
6Composite data type — In computer science, a composite data type is any data type which can be constructed in a program using its programming language s primitive data types and other composite types. The act of constructing a composite type is known as composition.… …
7Option type — For families of option contracts in finance, see Option style. In programming languages (especially functional programming languages) and type theory, an option type or maybe type is a polymorphic type that represents encapsulation of an optional …
8Opaque data type — In computer science, an opaque data type is a user defined data type used like built in data type. It is incompletely defined in an interface, so that ordinary client programs can only manipulate data of that type by calling procedures that have… …
9Complex data type — Some programming languages provide a complex data type for complex number storage and arithmetic as a built in (primitive) data type. In some programming environments the term complex data type (in contrast to primitive data types) is a synonym… …
10Decimal data type — Some programming languages provide a built in (primitive) or library decimal data type to represent non repeating decimal fractions like 0.3 and 1.17 without rounding, and to do arithmetic on them. Examples are the decimal.Decimal type of Python …
