1Array 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 …
2Data 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 …
3Algebraic 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… …
4Abstract data type — In computing, an abstract data type (ADT) is a specification of a set of data and the set of operations that can be performed on the data. Such a data type is abstract in the sense that it is independent of various concrete implementations. The… …
5Decimal 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 …
6Opaque 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… …
7Complex 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… …
8Composite 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.… …
9Data domain — For other uses, see Data domain (disambiguation). In data management and database analysis, a data domain refers to all the unique values which a data element may contain. The rule for determining the domain boundary may be as simple as a data… …
10Type system — Type systems Type safety Inferred vs. Manifest Dynamic vs. Static Strong vs. Weak Nominal vs. Structural Dependent typing Duck typing Latent typing Linear typing Uniqueness typing …
