primitive data types in java

1/* 
2	Java Data Types
3There 2 Types Of Data Types In Java
41) Primitive -> byte, char, short, int, long, float, double and boolean.
52) Non-primitive -> (All Classes) -> String, Arrays etc.

7Type	Size	Stores
8byte	1 byte	whole numbers from -128 to 127
9short	2 bytes	"" -32,768 to 32,767
10int	    4 bytes	"" -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
11long	8 bytes	""-9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807
12float	4 bytes	fractional numbers; for storing 6 to 7 decimal digits
13double	8 bytes	fractional numbers; "" 15 ""
14boolean	1 bit	true or false values
15char	2 bytes	single character/letter or ASCII values

1Primitive data types are those data types which are used by programmers when creating variables in their program. 
2For example :-
3    * boolean
4    * char
5    * byte
6    * short
7    * int
8    * long
9    * float
10    * double
11Non-Primitive data types:
12    * String
13    * array
14    * enum
15    * class
16    * etc

1Primitive types are the most basic data types available within the Java language. There are 8: boolean , byte , char , short , int , long , float and double . These types serve as the building blocks of data manipulation in Java. Such types serve only one purpose — containing pure, simple values of a kind.

1Non-Primitive Data Types: These data types are not actually defined by 
2the programming language but are created by the programmer. They are 
3also called “reference variables” or “object references” since they 
4refer to a memory location which stores the data.
5  
6All classes are non-primitive data types.
7Example : Object, String, Integer, Boolean, etc...
