Explain the basic types in TypeScript.
Detailed Explanation
TypeScript provides several built-in types for type safety.
Primitive Types:
• string: Text data
• number: Numeric values (integers and floats)
• boolean: True/false values
• null: Intentional absence of value
• undefined: Variable declared but not assigned
let name: string = "John";
let age: number = 25;
let isActive: boolean = true;
let data: null = null;
let value: undefined = undefined;
Special Types:
• any: Disables type checking
• void: No return value (functions)
• never: Values that never occur
• unknown: Type-safe alternative to any
function logMessage(): void {
console.log("Hello");
}
function throwError(): never {
throw new Error("Something went wrong");
}
