Conditionals
In computer programming, a variable is a storage location paired with an associated symbolic name (an identifier) which contains a value.[2]
In other words, a variable is a storage location for data. Variables have names. Some computer languages mandate you assign a data type to variables.
A video[edit]
This video references the C programming language and scratch, but the ideas about conditionals are excellent. In the case of conditionals, PHP and C share similar syntax (but not exact).
Standards[edit]
- Define the terms: variable, constant, operator, object.
