The data value "False" is of which type?

• A. Integer
• B. String
• C. Boolean
• D. Float

Answer: (B)

Strings are used for text, and quotes mark them as text. The value "False" is enclosed in quotation marks, so it is a string—the characters F, a, l, s, e arranged as text. It is not a number, so not an integer or a float, and it isn’t the boolean value true/false unless written without quotes or as a language-specific boolean literal. Therefore, the type is string.
