Numeric data refers to any data that consists of numbers. This can include integers (whole numbers), floating-point numbers (numbers with decimal points). Numeric data is typically used for quantitative measurements or calculations.
Boolean data consists of only two possible values: true or false. It's often used to represent binary conditions. Boolean data is typically represented with either a 1 or a 0.
Enum data, short for "enumerated" data, refers to a type of data that consists of a fixed set of predefined values. Each value in an enum is assigned a symbolic name, making it easier to understand and work with compared to arbitrary numeric or string values. Enums are commonly used to represent a set of related options or categories. Enums do not need to be in numerical order. Empty gaps in values could also be assigned as placeholders for future use.
String data consists of sequences of characters, typically used to represent text or arbitrary data. Strings can include letters, numbers, symbols, and whitespace. String data might be used for user-provided information, such as the name of a scheduled event or the description of a maintenance task.
