Builtin Types Integers, floating point, void, etc.

Miscellaneous Types Pointers, sets, files, etc.

Cross-References Referring to a type not yet defined.

Arrays An aggregate type of same-typed elements.

Strings Like an array but also has a length.

Enumerations Like an integer but the values have names.

Structures An aggregate type of different-typed elements.
