# Introduction Welcome to the Java Data Types and Basic Operations lab! In this lab, we'll dive into the fundamental building blocks of Java programming. You'll explore integers, floating-point numbers, and strings - the basic data types that form the foundation of any Java program. Don't worry if these terms sound a bit unfamiliar now; we'll explain each concept step by step and practice using them in real code. You'll also get hands-on experience with basic arithmetic operations and string concatenation. These skills are essential for any Java programmer, and mastering them will set you up for success as you continue your programming journey. By the end of this lab, you'll have a solid understanding of how to work with different types of data in Java, and you'll be ready to tackle more complex programming challenges. Let's get started!
