Basic Variables
The var keyword declares a variable the sad way. For example:
var mySkillIssues = 42;
Some of JavaScript's most common variable types are:
number: represents both integer and floating-point numbersboolean: eithertrueorfalsestring: a sequence of charactersundefined: a variable that hasn't been assigned a value
var smsSendingLimit = 100;
var isAdmin = true;
var username = "wagslane";
var nothing = undefined;
Don't worry, we'll talk about a better way to declare variables in the next lesson.
Assignment
Run (but don't submit yet) the code. Notice that the username is blank!
Set the username variable to the value "eddie_cabot". Then submit the fixed code.
