VARIABLES

what are variables?

  • Variables are nothing but a name given to a data.
  • It is also a reference to the data location in memory (RAM).
  • I would even say, it is a pointer to that memory location.
  • variables are executed in order of Top --> Bottom.

  • it can only have alphabet, alphabet+number and special character like underscore.
  • should be meaningful.
  • ex:
    • lowercase alphabet => a-z

    • underscore => _
