Core.DataTypes

Introductions

In OTX all variables, parameters, terms, etc. must have a declared type. Within the OTX-Core library is a distinction between two categories, see Figure.

Nesting of OTX data types

• Simple data type groups (Simple Data Type)
  Simple data types describe scalar elements that can accurately store a value.
• Complex data type groups (Complex Data Type)
  Complex data types are composed of simple data types or other objects than can store a value in general more.

Libraries can add on the extension mechanism defined in the Core new data types.
