How to use "Type" in context?
Now that we are comfortable with the concept of types and variables, we can start to use them in our programming languages. Types are important in programming because they define the restrictions on what a variable can hold.
Types also give us a way of checking that we are working with the right kind of data. For example, if we are working with a number, we can check to see if it is a number by checking its type. If it is not a number, we will need to convert it to a number before we can work with it.
In programming, there are three main types: numbers, strings, and Booleans.
