Can you list the basic primitive data types in Java?

In Java, the basic primitive data types include:

• byte — 8-bit integer
• short — 16-bit integer
• int — 32-bit integer
• long — 64-bit integer
• float — 32-bit floating-point number
• double — 64-bit floating-point number

These types are used to store simple values and differ from reference types (objects).
