Data Types

RainerScript is a typeless language. That doesn’t imply you don’t need to care about types. Of course, expressions like “A” + “B” will not return a valid result, as you can’t really add two letters (to concatenate them, use the concatenation operator &).  However, all type conversions are automatically done by the script interpreter when there is need to do so.
