How to define a variable in TypeScript? Please give code examples.

Sure, I'd be happy to help. In TypeScript, variables are declared with the `let` or `const` keyword followed by a name for the variable.

1. Declaring a `let` variable:

```typescript
let myVar: string = 'Hello, world!';
console.log(myVar);

myVar = 'Goodbye, world!';
console.log(myVar);
```

2. Declaring a `const` variable:

`const` variables can only be assigned a value once. They are useful for describing an object that does not change throughout the project. You can explicitly declare a type in `const` variable.

```typescript
const PI: number = 3.14159;

const myDate: Date = new Date();
console.log(myDate);

// myDate = new Date(); // This won't work - Can't reassigne.
```

Note: In TypeScript, we must provide types for the variables. You can use these types if you wish.

In addition to these ways, you can also define something when typed in communal methods or in classes with a property that holds the value.

Some integrated development environments (IDEs) like Visual Studio Code (which I'm embedded in) have TypeScript support, and in these IDEs, they help identify the critique if you define various patterns regarding this question.

Sure, defining a variable in TypeScript is quite similar to defining a variable in JavaScript. However, TypeScript allows you to specify the type of the variable for better type safety. Here's how you can define a variable:

```typescript
let variableName: type = value;
```

Here are some examples:

```typescript
let name: string = 'John Doe';
let age: number = 25;
let isStudent: boolean = true;
let hobbies: string[] = ['reading', 'painting', 'swimming'];
let car: {type: string, model: string} = {type: 'sedan', model: 'Camry'};
```

In the above examples, `name` is a string, `age` is a number, `isStudent` is a boolean, `hobbies` is an array of strings, and `car` is an object with properties `type` and `model` which are strings.

You can also define a variable without initializing it:

```typescript
let variableName: type;
```

For example:

```typescript
let name: string;
let age: number;
let isStudent: boolean;
let hobbies: string[];
let car: {type: string, model: string};
```

In this case, you can assign values to these variables later in your code.
