Hi folks

in a function, I receive a variant
Is it possible to analyze the type?
I've found the instruction IsObject but nothing to test whether it's a boolean, an integer or a string

vartype(variable)

The answer by @JeJe shows how to get the most detailed information, but you need to interpret it based on code numbers.
You can also use the function Typename(variable). In case variable is an array, a pair of parentheses is appended to the returned name.
