= Core Types in Olivine =
== text ==
Text is just that, text.  You string a line of characters together and wrap them in a pair of double-quotes.  In fact, in most languages this type is called ''string''.  Here is an example of ''text'':

{{{
"Hello World!"
}}}

== whole number ==
Whole numbers are numbers without fractions.  They can be positive or negative but cannot have a decimal point.

== list ==
A list is a type that contains multiple instances of some other type.  All the items in the list must be the same type.  Here is a list of text for example:

{{{
[
   "First item"
   "Second item"
   "Third item"
]
}}}

Lists can also be expressed on a single line using a comma separator, for example:
{{{
[ "First item", "Second item", "Third item" ]
}}}
