The choice of data type for storage the date of birth of a human depends on how the algorithm will use that data.
For algorithms which store this data merely for display purposes, storing the date of birth as a text might be suitable.
In many cases, however, operations such as comparison for equality or greater-than or less-than relationships are required, for example in order to support sorting and searching algorithms. This typically leads to the implementation of a numeric data format, often using a scalar such as a 16-bit or 32-bit unsigned integer. Such a format could, for example, encode the date of birth as the number of dates since January 1st, 1970.
This method limits the maximum age of people on record (1-1-1970) and has a limited lifetime, as it may only support 216 or 232 days in total. While these limitations may be perfectly acceptable in many applications, a more general approach might use a data structure containing distinct numeric fields for the day, month and year, possibly including other details such as the calendar system, or an uncertainty factor (useful when estimating the age of archaeological finds, for example).
Many databases and some programming languages provide built-in support for data types such as Date and Time, which might be suitable for a given application, subject to the application's requirements and limitations imposed by those data types.
Well, recall that shoes can come in half-sizes. That eliminates integers (and similar).The best data type would be a float.

You should use the Date/Time data type for this. It allows you to enter dates.
I am assuming that the question is "What would the best data type to represent a price".Although this is open for debate, in Java I think that the best data type for a price is double and the best data type in C# to be decimal.I hope this answers your question.

A field's data type specifies the kind of data it can contain, such as text, numbers, dates, or Boolean values. This helps ensure data integrity by restricting what type of data can be entered into that field, preventing errors and inconsistencies in the database. Choosing the appropriate data type for each field is important for accurately storing and organizing data.

database
The data type of a field specifies the kind of data it can contain, such as text, numbers, dates, etc. It determines how the field is stored and how operations can be performed on it, like arithmetic calculations and comparisons. The field is used by storing and retrieving data according to its specified data type.
Materials storing is when businesses use warehouses to store their materials. Managers must make sure they find the best warehouse based on the type of goods they have.
