There are certain data types which are defined by a Pascal compiler as standard data types. These types are generally the atomic data structures used by a Pascal program, as variables and constants that would be made up of them can't be created from something else without these types. The typical standard types include:
- boolean - true or false
- char - Character
- real - Numbers with decimal points or exponents
- integer - Whole numbers
- set - A group of values
Additional standard types which are defined by more advanced compilers include:
- object - used to declare object types
- string - used to declare strings which are handled automatically by the compiler and run-time library.
