What are variables and how (and why) should I use them?
I got home last night, and the cat insisted he had not been fed all day, and was STARVING. I hadn't been there all day, so I didn't know, and my wife was off to her quilting party, so I couldn't ask...
Variables in programming are named storage locations that hold data. They facilitate dynamic data handling, improve code readability, enable value reuse, aid debugging, and support mathematical/logical operations. Use them to store and manage data, respond to user input, and make your code more flexible and readable.
