i dun even know what type 
Most of those 3 light types are all one... halogen. You can get some different ones but the most available are halogen.
Do you want more heat or less heat from the light?
Judging from your screen name, look into High pressure sodium or metal halide

Whatever light you choose, most of the energy comes out as heat. Lamps aren't very efficient at turning power into light, most of it ends up as heat. Some types are better than others, but it's pretty safe to assume that any 100w lamp will produce close to 100w of heat.
And in the end whatever light is produced generally ends up warming whatever it shines on anyway.

They all produce approximatly the same amount of heat however a true spot light bulb will concentrate and project that heat more so than the others. A flood will be the coolest of the three by virtue of the fact that it's designed to spread the light out over a large area (Flood effect)
