Answer from AI

In JavaScript, the following main data types exist:

  • Primitive types:

    • Number — numeric values (integers and floating-point)
    • String — strings
    • Boolean — logical values (true or false)
    • Undefined — the value of a variable that has not been assigned a value
    • Null — a special value indicating the absence of a value
    • Symbol — unique and immutable identifiers
    • BigInt — integers of arbitrary length
  • Objects:

    • Object — a collection of key-value pairs
    • Arrays, functions, dates, and other data structures are objects

Example:

let num = 42; // Number
let str = "Hello"; // String
let flag = true; // Boolean
let nothing; // Undefined
let empty = null; // Null
let sym = Symbol('id'); // Symbol
let big = 9007199254740991n; // BigInt
let obj = {name: "Alice"}; // Object
