# Types
The type system in toy is opt-in, but allows a lot of robust checks at runtime when needed. Types themselves are first-class citizens. To retreive the type of an existing variable, use the `typeof` keyword.

## Astype
Due to the syntax of Toy, when storing a complex type into a varable, you may need to use the `astype` keyword to differentiate the value from an array or dictionary.

## First-Class Citizens
Types are first-class citizens. What this means is that they can be used just like any other value, as well as being stored in variables, and even returned from functions.

## Opaque Data
Sometimes, you may need to pass data through Toy that Toy can't normally handle. This data is called "opaque" data, and is passed around by reference rather than value. Anything can be passed in as opaque data, as long as it's represented as a void pointer in C.
