   float	floating-point number or (a number with a decimal point)
   int	number without a decimal point
   double	same as float, however, can it is a 64-bit number and can hold a longer value.
   char	typographic objects such as A, C or %
   string	stores a sequence of characters "NAME"
   Array	int[] value = new int[3]; value[0] = 10; value[1] = 200; value[2] = 40; An array is a list of data and can store multiple values. Lists can be multi-dimensional.
   PVector	This data type can store up to three values. We will discuss this data type in great detail in the following lesions, however, for more information please see the following link. reference/PVectorl

   
   
   
2. Conditionals and Iteration

   for	for( int i = 0; i<10; i++){ println(i); } A "for" loop will perform a sequence of operations. In the above example we count from 0 to 10.
   while	int i = 0; while(i<100){ println(i); } "While" performs a sequence of operations while a statement is true.
   if	if(i<100){ println(true); } "If" will perform an operation in a statement is true.
   break	"Break" ends the execution of a statement such as for and while and moves to the next statement in the script.
