what is primitive data types ?

primitive data types in java are the basic building block for storing and manipulating data.
they are predefined by the language and specify the type of a variable and the values in can hold.

The data type itself is not for manipulating.. It defines the type of variable and which valid values are existing for that type of variable... Please docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/ja...
Also java is written Java....
