Data types consist of integers, hexadecimal integers, floating-point numbers,
Boolean expressions and text strings.
Integer data: Used to indicate integral quantities such as a number of records, a
filter length, etc.
 They consist of an optional plus or minus sign, followed by one or more digits.
 For example, +1, -12, 123 are all valid integers.
Hexadecimal integer data: Used for the same purposes as integers.
 They consist of the two characters "0x," followed by one or more hexadecimal
digits (0-9, A-F, a-f), which is the 'C' programming language convention.
 No plus or minus sign is permitted.
 For example, 0x1, 0x12, 0x1234abcd are all valid hexadecimal integers.
Floating-point number: Used to specify continuously variable values such as
temperature set points, time intervals, warning limits, voltages, etc.
 They consist of an optional plus or minus sign, followed by zero or more digits,
an optional decimal point and zero or more digits.
 At least one digit must appear before or after the decimal point.
 Scientific notation is not permitted.
 For example, +1.0, 1234.5678, -0.1, 1 are all valid floating-point numbers.
