Data types are a classification of data that determines how it is stored and interpreted.

A data structure is the design used for organizing, using, and storing data.

The UI (user interface) is a device's end-user interaction and communication point. It can include display screens, keyboards, and mouse. It is also how a user interacts with your application.

APIs (application programming interfaces) are a set of protocols and definitions developers use to build and integrate application software. APIs act as the connective tissue between products and services.
