Variables can store data of different types, and different data types can do different things:

String:
string can be any text inside quotes. You can use single or double quotes.
Integer:
An integer data type is a non-decimal number between.
Float:
A float is a number with a decimal point or a number in exponential form.
Boolean:
This is represents two possible states: TRUE or FALSE
Array:
Array stores multiple values in one single variable.
Object:
An object is a data type which stores data and information on how to process that data.
NULL Value:
This is special data type which can have only one value: NULL.
Resource:The special resource type is not an actual data type. It is the storing of a reference to functions and resources external to PHP.
