## 3.3. Properties

Both nodes and relationships can have properties.

Properties are key-value pairs where the key is a string. Property values can be either a primitive or an array of one primitive type. For example `String`, `int` and `int[]` values are valid for properties.

| Note
`null` is not a valid property value. Nulls can instead be modeled by the absence of a key.

Property value types

Type | Description | Value range
--- | --- | ---
`boolean` |  | `true`/`false`
`byte` | 8-bit integer | `-128` to `127`, inclusive
`short` | 16-bit integer | `-32768` to `32767`, inclusive
`int` | 32-bit integer | `-2147483648` to `2147483647`, inclusive
`long` | 64-bit integer | `-9223372036854775808` to `9223372036854775807`, inclusive
`float` | 32-bit IEEE 754 floating-point number |
`double` | 64-bit IEEE 754 floating-point number |
`char` | 16-bit unsigned integers representing Unicode characters | `u0000` to `uffff` (`0` to `65535`)
`String` | sequence of Unicode characters |
