To be able to understand how data is classified in a program is the very initial phase in learning for any programming language. Same in JavaScript, JavaScript variables can hold many data types as :
- String

In JavaScript it enables the usage of dynamic types i.e, the same variable can be used to hold different data types.
Dynamic types
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h2>JavaScript Data Types</h2>
<p>JavaScript has dynamic types.</p>
<p id="TL"></p>
<script>
var A; //A is undefined
A = 23; //A is a Number
A = "Rajib"; // A is a String
document.getElementById("TL").innerHTML = A;
</script>
</body>
</html>
