+## Data types
+
+DDSQL supports the following data types:
+
+| Data Type | Description |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| `BIGINT` | 64-bit signed integers. |
+| `BOOLEAN` | `true` or `false` values. |
+| `DOUBLE` | Double-precision floating-point numbers. |
+| `INTERVAL` | Time duration values. |
+| `JSON` | JSON data. |
+| `TIMESTAMP` | Date and time values. |
+| `VARCHAR` | Variable-length character strings. |
+
+### Array types
+
+All data types except `JSON` support array types. Arrays can contain multiple values of the same data type.
+
+## Type literals
+
+DDSQL supports explicit type literals using the syntax `[TYPE] [value]`.
+
+| Type | Syntax | Example |
+|------|--------|---------|
+| `BIGINT` | `BIGINT value` | `BIGINT 1234567` |
+| `BOOLEAN` | `BOOLEAN value` | `BOOLEAN true` |
+| `DOUBLE` | `DOUBLE value` | `DOUBLE 3.14159` |
+| `INTERVAL` | `INTERVAL 'value unit'` | `INTERVAL '30 minutes'` |
+| `JSON` | `JSON 'value'` | `JSON '{"key": "value", "count": 42}'` |
+| `TIMESTAMP` | `TIMESTAMP 'value'` | `TIMESTAMP '2023-12-25 10:30:00'` |
+| `VARCHAR` | `VARCHAR 'value'` | `VARCHAR 'hello world'` |
+
+The type prefix can be omitted and the type is automatically inferred from the value. For example, `'hello world'` is inferred as `VARCHAR`, `123` as `BIGINT`, and `true` as `BOOLEAN`.
+
+### Array literals
+
+Array literals use the syntax `ARRAY[value1, value2, ...]`. The array type is automatically inferred from the values.
+
+{{< code-block lang="sql" >}}
+SELECT ARRAY['apple', 'banana', 'cherry'] AS fruits; -- Inferred as VARCHAR array
+SELECT ARRAY[1, 2, 3] AS numbers; -- Inferred as BIGINT array
+SELECT ARRAY[true, false, true] AS flags; -- Inferred as BOOLEAN array
+SELECT ARRAY[1.1, 2.2, 3.3] AS decimals; -- Inferred as DOUBLE array
+{{< /code-block >}}
+
+### Example
+
+{{< code-block lang="sql" >}}
+-- Using type literals in queries
+SELECT
+ VARCHAR 'Product Name: ' || name AS labeled_name,
+ price * DOUBLE 1.08 AS price_with_tax,
+ created_at + INTERVAL '7 days' AS expiry_date
+FROM products
+WHERE active = BOOLEAN true;
