I'm trying to find out which type of paint is best to use on my walls. Is it better to use oil-based or latex?

It depends on your preference and the intended purpose of the wall. If you want a long-lasting, washable finish, then latex would be a good choice. Oil-based paints are generally more durable and can provide a richer color palette than latex. However, if you're looking for an easy-to-clean surface that will resist mildew, then oil-based paints may be the better option. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide what type of paint works best for your needs.
