The Common Type System (CTS) is a standard that specifies how Type definitions and specific values of Types are represented in the computer memory. It is intended to allow programs written in different programming languages to easily share information. As used in programming languages, a Type|data type can be described as a definition of a set of values (for example, "all integers between 0 and 10"), and the allowable operations on those values (for example, addition and subtraction).
