Hello Das and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

Thanks for reaching out and letting us know you had a question about variables.

Storyline supports three types:

  • True/False: True/False variables are often called Boolean variables. They're either true or false. They're great for creating toggle buttons and restricting learners' options. For example, you might use a true/false variable to track whether a certain event has occurred, then let learners proceed to the next slide only when the variable is true.
  • Text: Text variables hold text values. Common uses include personalizing content by displaying the learner's name throughout a course and evaluating text-based interactions.
  • Number: Number variables hold numeric values. Common uses for number variables include tracking the number of times a particular event has occurred and performing mathematical calculations.

    Number variables can hold static values, or you can make them random by entering starting and ending values for a range of numbers. Learn more about random number variables.
