4Universal types
5---------------
6
7The ASN.1 language defines a collection of core data types
8also known as *universal* types.
9
10Some of these types behave like a scalar (e.g. *simple* types) while
11the rest are structured types (the standard calls them *constructed*).
12
13Example of simple types include :ref:`Integer <univ.Integer>` or
14:ref:`OctetString <univ.OctetString>`. Constructed types like
15:ref:`Sequence <univ.Sequence>` embed other types, both simple
16and constructed.
