Data field

Back to Data types.

A data field / variable is a reserved space (stack or heap) in the main memory (RAM) in which data is stored for repeated use. So that the data field / variable can be used, it must be assigned a specific data type .

Examples of assigning a data type to a data field / variable:

  var 
    i: integer;
    w: word;
    lw: longword;
    ch: char;
    str: string;
    boo: boolean;
