Answer:
0
20
Blah
30
Why is that?
Lets pass over the code line after line:
Dim Blah As Integer
A new Integer with the name Blah has been declared
Print Blah
Will print the Value that found in the Blah
variable.
But there is nothing in the Blah variable!
The Blah variable has
just been declared, and we
didn't put inside it any value yet.
The default
value of any integer variable is 0.
When you write
:
Dim Blah As
Integer
It's like you've
written:
Dim Blah
As Integer
Blah = 0
So it will print the value that found right now
in the
Blah variable - 0
Blah = 10
Now the Blah variable holds the number 10
Blah = 20
Now the Blah variable holds the number
20
What's happened to the 10 that was inside it?
It has been deleted!
A
variable can holds only one value, and when
you put in it a value, the old
value is being immediately deleted.
So what is the differents between
Blah =
20
and
Blah
= 10
Blah =
20
?
There is no differents!
In both
cases the Blah variable will hold the number 20
Print Blah
Will print the
value that found right now
in the Blah variable - 20
Blah = 30
Now the Blah variable holds the number 30
Print "Blah"
Will print the Text that found between the
quotes - Blah
Print Blah
Will print the value that found right now
in the Blah
variable - 30
