private double vs private int

[edgeliner]

Can anyone tell me the difference when you are using these in the #region Variables section?? How do you know which one to use when stating a value??

Hello edgeliner,

These specify the structure of the value you're looking to define.

Double = can have decimal values and is useful for prices.
Integer = whole numbers only and is useful for period inputs

If you're looking for more background here, do a google search for "programming data types" and you there should be plenty of links to check out.
