- Recursive data type, a data type for values that may contain other values of the same type. Data of recursive types are usually viewed as directed graphs
- Algebraic data type, a datatype each of whose values is data from other datatypes wrapped in one of the constructors of the datatype

Famous quotes containing the words data and/or type:
“To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it—all my life.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“It took six weeks of debate in the Senate to get the Arms Embargo Law repealed—and we face other delays during the present session because most of the Members of the Congress are thinking in terms of next Autumn’s election. However, that is one of the prices that we who live in democracies have to pay. It is, however, worth paying, if all of us can avoid the type of government under which the unfortunate population of Germany and Russia must exist.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
