Add Examples for VarRef and Buffer

Code: Select all

d := "4"
MsgBox Type(&d)		; -> VarRef

Code: Select all

buf := Buffer(10)
MsgBox Type(buf)	; -> Buffer

Edit:
Also Type detect Objects (like IsObject())

Code: Select all

obj := { key: "value" }
MsgBox Type(obj)	; -> Object

I was about to write about the documentation for "Type", and I saw this one that fits the topic. (Sorry if it would have been better to make my own.)

A part from those mentioned by @jNizM, there is also Func.
But also, as I understand it the enumeration of types in the introduction is outdated, because it says you can only get String, Integer and Float.

From what I've seen around VarRef, Buffer and Func need to be added to the documentation, I don't know if there are more.

and it says so "for primitive values"". Buffer, Func and VarRef aren't primitive values;

• 123
• 1.23
• ""

are
so, nothing wrong with the documentation nor is it outdated

Ok, I got your point.
I just wanted to say that it would be good to know that those other values can be returned too.

I just found out that there is this page:
Built-in Classes (https://lexikos.github.io/v2/docs/objects/index.htm)
Which is pretty close to what I wanted to know when I was talking about this.

This page is missing from the "Index" tab of the docs. I found it because I saw it searching something else on "Search".
And it might also be interesting to link it from the Type docs.
