When you come from JS or any untyped language, **typing** your variables is an alien concept, making **typing** the hardest step to take towards GLSL.

So depending on whether you're manipulating 2D or 3D coordinates, a color with or without an alpha value or simply some random variables, you can pick the most suited **vector** type and size.
Typically 2D coordinates and vectors (in the geometric sense) are stored as a `vec2`, `vec3` or `vec4`, colors as `vec3` or `vec4` if you need opacity but there is no restriction on how to use the vectors.
For instance, if you want to store only one boolean value in a `bvce4`, it's possible, it's just a waste of memory.
For instance, if you want to store only one boolean value in a `bvec4`, it's possible, it's just a waste of memory.
**note**: in a shader, color values (`R`, `G`, `B` & `A`) are normalised, they range from 0 to 1 and not from 0 to 0xFF, so you'd rather use a Float `vec4` than an Integer `ivec4` to store them.

With arguments qualifiers, you can specify the behaviour of the arguments:
* ```in``` will be read-only ( default )
* ```out``` write-only: you can't read the value of this argument but you can set it
* ```inout``` read-write: you can both get and set the value of this variable
