Abstract

Groovy data types can be categorized into simple data types and collective data types. Simple data types include strings, regular expressions (regexes), and numbers. Collective data types include lists, maps, and ranges. Groovy offers support for such data types at the language level, meaning that it offers native syntax for declaring and using special operators on them.
