Beginner's Guide to Datatypes

Datatypes in Ruby

so far, Ruby seems to handle datatypes in a very smooth way. what I mean by that is that unlike other languages like C++ where the datatype has to be declared prior to even thinking about initializing it, Ruby knows what datatype to assign a variable from the variable's content itself. like for example if we were to declare a variable x like this:

x = "Hello World!"

Ruby would automatically assign the variable x the datatype of String

• Now, Ruby has many datatypes of which we can mention the following:

1. Numbers
2. Booleans
3. Strings
4. Hashes

A brief demonstration of the above datatypes would be like this :

x = 3; 
y = True/False;
z = "Hello World!"
c = {"Mod5" : "Sara & Michael", "Mod6" : "Haitham & John"}
