     • ex : int, char, boolean

3. Variables

     • ex : int x = 27

4. Constants

   • A placeholder value that cannot be changed by using the keyword "final"
     • ex : final int x = 27

5. Literals

   • The code representation of assigning a value to a variable that is understood by the Java compiler
