      anyType = 200.45.GetType();
      Console.WriteLine("The type of the literal 200.45 is: " + anyType.FullName);
      anyType = (age * mass).GetType();
      Console.WriteLine("The type of expression (age * mass) is: " + anyType.FullName);
      anyType = (age + height).GetType();
      Console.WriteLine("The type of the expression " + "(age + height) is: " + anyType.FullName);
      anyType = ((age * mass) * (energy + height)).GetType();
      Console.WriteLine("The type of the expression " + "((age * mass) * (energy + height)) is: " + anyType.FullName);
