In computer science, the Boolean (sometimes shortened to Bool) is a data type that has one of two possible values (usually denoted true and false) which...

abstract data type (ADT) is a mathematical model for data types, defined by its behavior (semantics) from the point of view of a user of the data, specifically...

A real data type is a data type used in a computer program to represent an approximation of a real number. Because the real numbers are not countable,...
