Lesson outcome

I can apply appropriate naming conventions and explain the differences between variables and constants.

Show transcript
Naming conventions improve code readability and maintainability. A variable is a named piece of data stored in a computer’s memory. A variable can be accessed and changed by a computer program. Variables must be declared and assigned values in a program. Constants hold fixed values that do not change throughout the running of the program.
