C

Basically, a technical term from the C standard for anything stored in memory. (In practice, interchangeable with 'variable' or 'memory'.)

Inclusive of variables, structs, arrays, array entities arr[2] etc.

To be distinguished from entities which do not exist in memory such as type definitions, macros, things that are handled by the pre-processor.

Where "memory" can be thought of anything that survives compilation.

They have nothing to do with "complex data types" that we would associate with OOP.
