Some can take integral types (only)
Some can take real (both built-in floating-point - float, double.. AND User Defined real types)
And some can take either integral OR real.
Real : Floating-point types Integer : Integral types Arithmetic : Either Integral OR Floating-point types
Arithmetic is a bit long - other ideas?
How about Number? It is used in some languages (e.g. javascript) that don't have both float and int. Darren
