Let's start with Variables.
A Variable is a container that can hold a certain value, like in Maths we have variable x=2
or x+y=2
where x
and y
are variables that can hold a number.
In JS, we define a variable using var
keyword.
var a = 2; // here "a" holds the value 2
Here's an another example:
var b = 6;
var c = 4;
console.log(b+c); // Now b = 4 and c = 6, so output will b +c i.e 10
Variables can hold various Data Types, which we'll learn in futher lessons.
For example:
var greet = "Hey There!"; // greet holds a String data type.
var age = 21; // age holds an integer data type.
NOTE: If you declare a variable with var
keyword initially and the re-assign a different value to it, the previous value gets overwritten.
var name = "Elon Musk"
console.log(name); // Elon Musk gets logged.
var name = "Tesla"
console.log(name); // name is now Tesla, not Elon Musk
Next, We'll learn about Data Types in JavaScript.
