Pascal is strictly typed language, which means that every variable and constant need to have a strictly defined type, known at the time of compilation.

The type serves:

• to determine the correct memory allocation required,
• to interpret the bit patterns found in the object during subsequent accesses,
• in many type-checking situations, to ensure that illegal assignments are trapped.

mikroPascal PRO for PIC supports many standard (predefined) and user-defined data types, including signed and unsigned integers of various sizes, arrays, strings, pointers and records.
