You may see an error when trying to replace a value with an invalid one.
- For example, if the value type is boolean, you may replace values from true to false or from false to true, but if you will try to replace the value true or false to other, for example, to Motor, an error message will be displayed.
- You will not be allowed to change the Integer value to String when it is a part of the value. For example, if you have the 120 value, trying to replace 20 with AB will cause an error.
