Data Types & Variables in JavaScript

In week 1 of the JavaScript workshop series, we explore:

- How to setup your Cloud9 environment to code in JavaScript
- Learn about different data types, like strings, integers, and objects
- Explore how we can convert between different data types (i.e., type coercion)
- Look into what it means for JS to ""output"" or ""return"" values, and how they are different
- Pick up what variables are, and how they are useful
