Answer Posted / shinoy sansilavose
if your variable always represents a value which is needed
for some mathematical calculations then you can define that
var as either a numeric one or as an alphanumeric one.
if your variable is specif for any city name or address you
can declare it as alphabetic or alphanumeric(alphanumeric
is suggested since address contain pin codes/door number)
