Perl has 4 fundamental data types - scalar, list, hash and typeglobs

Scalar - represents single values such as string, numbers, references etc

List   - represents an ordered array of scalars

Hash - is an associative array,with key-value pairs

Type globs - represent an entry in the internal symbol table, and is used to manipulate file handles
