Variables Basics
Variables are how programs remember things. In this module you'll learn what a variable is, how to declare one, and how to use variables to store, combine, and print real data — finishing with a mini challenge to prove it.
Learning Objectives
Understand variables — what they are and why programs need them.
Declare and assign variables with strings and numbers.
Use variables in expressions and print their values to the console.

Great job!
You crushed the “Use Variables” challenge — your code ran without a single error.
Feedback
- Variables are declared with clear, readable names.
