Variable Naming Conventions
Variables are used in all computer programming languages and are used for various reasons; such as, holding the value of a constant, holding the value of something used many times throughout the program, or used briefly for counting. The names used for each variable are more difficult to choose than simply making any word or word combination. The rest of this article is dedicated to helping the novice programmer determine variable names for different programming languages and purposes.
Introduction
A Variable is a name used within a program that holds the value of something that is known or unknown.
