You specify a data type by adding its name to the variable definition. Separate the variable name and its data type by a colon:
Here are some examples:
Think of the colon as "of type." We defined above the variable a of type int, the variable b of type String, and the variable c of type char. Notice that data types are case-sensitive. The String data type starts with a capital letter. For example, if you try string instead of String, the JScript .NET compiler (jsc.exe) will complain, and will not compile your code.To learn more on JScript .NET, go to Column 108, JScript .NET, Part II: Major Features.
