Struct Variant

Variant type.

The 'Variant' type is a primitive type that can be used to 'box' values of any type.

An uninitialized variant will contain a 'null' value (of type Void) until you assign something to it.

A variant is 'true' if it contains any value with a non-void type (including a bool false value!) and 'false' if it is uninitialized and has no (void) type.

Any type of value can be implicitly converted to a variant.

To retrieve the value contained in a variant, you must explicitly cast the variant to the desired type. Note that the cast must specify the exact type of the value already contained in the variant, or a runtime error will occur.

The one exception to this is if the variant contains a class object, in which case you can cast the variant to any valid base class of the object.
