@tariqazizstacks primitive data types store simple values directly, like int, char, boolean, or float. non-primitive types represent more complex structures, like arrays, strings, classes, and objects.

for example in java:

int age = 25; → primitive
String name = "tariq"; → non-primitive

another key difference is that non-primitive types can have methods and can usually be null, while primitive types cannot.
