# Addresses

The type `Address` represents an address. Addresses are unsigned integers with a size of 64 bits (8 bytes). Hexadecimal integer literals can be used to create address values.

```
// Declare a constant that has type `Address`.
//
let someAddress: Address = 0x436164656E636521

// Invalid: Initial value is not compatible with type `Address`,
// it is not a number.
//
let notAnAddress: Address = ""

// Invalid: Initial value is not compatible with type `Address`.
// The integer literal is valid, however, it is larger than 64 bits.
//
let alsoNotAnAddress: Address = 0x436164656E63652146757265766572
```

Integer literals are not inferred to be an address.

```
// Declare a number. Even though it happens to be a valid address,
// it is not inferred as it.
//
let aNumber = 0x436164656E636521

// `aNumber` has type `Int`
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://max-daunarovich.gitbook.io/flow-network/introduction/values-and-types/addresses.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
