11.2.8.1 Rewrite Data Types

There are only two data types: integer and string, the two being coercible to each other in the sense that a string can be coerced to an integer if it contains a valid ASCII representation of a decimal, octal, or hex number, and an integer can always be coerced to a string, the result of such coercion being the ASCII string that is the decimal representation of the number.
