One of the most fundamental characteristics of a programming language is the set of data types it supports. These are the type of values that can be represented and manipulated in a programming language. JavaScript allows you to work with three primitive data types: Numbers, e.g., 123, 120.50 etc Strings of text, e.g. "This text string" etc. Boolean, e.g. true or false. JavaScript also defines two trivial data types, null and undefined, each of which defines only a single value. In addition to these primitive data types, JavaScript supports a composite data type known as object. We will cover objects in detail in a separate chapter. Note: Java does not make a distinction between integer values and floating-point values. All numbers in JavaScript are represented as floating-point values.
