How to Use Variables and Data Types in JavaScript

In JavaScript, variables are containers that store data values. They make your code flexible and reusable because you can store information and use it throughout your program.

JavaScript has several data types such as strings, numbers, booleans, and more. Understanding these data types helps you choose the right way to store and manipulate data. You declare variables using the keywords var, let, or const.

let username = 'Alice';
let age = 25;
const isStudent = true;

console.log(username); // Outputs: Alice
console.log(age); // Outputs: 25
console.log(isStudent); // Outputs: true

In this example, we declared three variables with different data types. 'username' holds a string, 'age' holds a number, and 'isStudent' holds a boolean value. Remember, use const for values that won’t change and let for those that will. This helps prevent bugs in your code.
