Data Types and Memory Allocation

Java is a strongly typed language. This means that every variable must have a
declared type. There are eight primitive types in Java.
● Four integer types
○ byte, short, int, long
● Two floating-point number types
○ float (6-7 decimal digits)
○ double(15 decimal digits)
● one character type
● one a boolean type
Rules of Identifiers

Identifiers in Java are names that identify elements such as classes, variables, and
methods in a program. In other words, an identifier is one that is for naming variables,
user-defined methods, classes, objects, parameters, labels, packages, and interfaces in a
program.

● Java identifier is a sequence of characters that consists of letters, digits, underscores


(_), and dollar signs ($).
● It must start with a letter, an underscore (_), or a dollar sign ($). It cannot begin with a
digit.
● It cannot be a reserved word.
● It cannot be true, false, or null.
● It cannot contain !@#$%^&*()_+-=\|/.,<>?”:;’ signs.
● It can be of any length.
