Variables used in Javascript are used to store data. They are ‘containers’ for storing this data. When coding and needing to add a variable, we do this by using the word ‘let’ at the beginning of the code. After adding in ‘let’ you can then give it a value! (Which is defined as initialization). Below I will show an example of giving a variable, a value:<\/p>\n

let<\/strong> name;<\/p>\n

Can you see where I’m going with this? Right now I am using a variable to start my code, which is going to show us a name.<\/p>\n

let<\/strong> name;<\/p>\n

name = “Jess”;<\/p>\n

This code is telling us that the name is Jess. Which is, obviously, my name! I learned this technique the best with our SoloLearn assignment. It had very clear steps and explanations on how to code in Javascript, and definitely taught me more about how to fully understand different factors of code.\u00a0<\/p>\n
