Java primitive data types are fundamental data types built into the Java language that represent simple values directly in memory. There are eight primitive data types in Java, categorized into four groups: integer types (byte, short, int, long), floating-point types (float, double), character type (char), and boolean type (boolean). Each primitive data type has a specific size and range of values it can represent. Primitive data types are used to store simple values efficiently and are passed by value in Java method calls. Understanding and effectively using Java's primitive data types are essential for writing efficient and correct Java programs.
