Dynamic Keyword in Dart

Dynamic Keyword in Dart

In Dart, the dynamic keyword is used to declare variables that can hold values of any type.

dynamic allows for dynamic typing, where the type of a variable is determined at runtime.

This means a dynamic variable can hold different types of values at different times during the execution of a program.

How to Use dynamic:

dynamic myVariable = 42; // myVariable can now hold an integer
print(myVariable);

myVariable = "Hello, Dart!"; // myVariable can now hold a string
print(myVariable);

Here, myVariable starts by holding an integer and later gets assigned a string. The type is determined dynamically based on the assigned value.
