In Solidity smart contracts, there are 3 types of variable:
- Fixed-size types
- Variable-size types
- User-defined types
There are many different kind of variables, but the one I used the most are:
-
uint

address
to specify recipient of transfers -
arrays
, to represent collection of data -
mappings
to also represent collection of data but this time when we want easy retrieval with a key -
struct
to represent some structured data, like a user
