So I'm going to open up my code in the Start folder. I'm going to go into the Overview, and VarsAndData. And I'll open up the Program.cs file. So here in the code, you can see that I've already declared several different variables of different types. So if you're used to working with other languages like JavaScript or maybe Python, than this might look a little different, since in those languages you just create a variable and then assign a value.
