["Timo Walther (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8706?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16369229#comment-16369229 ] 

Timo Walther commented on FLINK-8706:
-------------------------------------

Thanks for the hint [~anonz3000@gmail.com]. The documentation about types could be improved anyway. Until then I would recommend to take [this class|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-core/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/api/common/typeinfo/Types.java] as a reference.

> See [Supported Data Types|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.4/dev/api_concepts.html#supported-data-types] in the online documentation. The text specifies that there are "six different categories of data types," but the list below contains seven items. I suggest that you omit a specific number in the sentence preceding the list. Here is a suggestion: "DataSet and DataStream support the following categories of data elements." See the attached screenshot. Note: Please let me know if these types of issues are too trivial to report. Thx.
