Well I'm assuming your talking about methods when you talk about voids. A 'Void' is a method where you don't return anything. A char method would return a char value.

Now if you want to talk about them as variables, a char like you said holds character values (like letters, symbols, or numbers). An int can only hold numerical values. A bool can only have a true or false value. A double holds numerical values with decimals (like 1.2 or something). A void is simply something that isn't there, hence the name.

void is nothing, void == null.

void variables don't exist, they don't hold anything.

Exactly. Solved?

this means a void have no return

a char have a return

Thats for a function you dumbshit

[php]void variable; //illegal
char variable; //legal

void function()
{
//doesnt return
}

char function()
{
//returns a char
}
[/php]

lol wow this is funny

[BloodSkin]

ooo ok i think i understand now. so we use void when we just want to run commands but dont want any values to result from what we just did?

[^...,^]

well...thats just about it then...

This will help me out a little bit
If I learned well, char variable can only hold 1 letter, but I didn't know that "void" thingy
