Question

A __________ identifies a variable in the program code.

Answer 1

Answer:

A Variable name identifies a variable in the program code.

Explanation:

Variables are the terms used for storing names, numbers, lists or other kind of data in programming languages. They can be initiated by the assignment operators according to the syntax of the language being used.

For example:

      In Java script, variables are initiated by using keyword var or let before the variable name and the value is assigned by using assignment operator and value.

•         let marks = 100;
•         var name = 'CPED';

However there are some rules for assigning a name to a variable. They include:

• It must start with an alphabet or a underscore.
• It can contain alphabets, digits and special characters.
• A keyword can never be a variable name.
• They are case-sensitive which means, Upper case letters are different from Lower case.
