DefInt
Specifies a default data type for a range of variable names
DefInt start_letter[-end_letter ][, ...]
start_letter
DefInt specifies that variables and arrays which aren't declared with a data type - or not declared at all - are implicitly declared of type Integer if the first letter of their names matches a certain letter or lies within an inclusive range of letters.
This will make iNumber an Integer number since its first letter starts with i.
