Data type ... Most programming languages support various types of data, for example: real, integer or Boolean. A Data type provides a set of values from which an expression (i.e. variable, function ...) may take its values.

the type of data that a variable can store is called datatype.
some examples are
int-to store integer values
double/float - to store decimal values
char-to store characters
long- to store long values of int or double or float type etc.
say int a;the variable a stores int values
float b;can store values such as 3.67
char c; can store values as 'a' etc
