Know what a variable is, and why they are
fundamental in programming.
Know the different uses of variables
Understand how you can add data and read
data from a variable.

The best way to think of a variable is an
empty box
The box is able to store something, but if
you want to add something new, then item

length
There are some reserved

as a variable name because
Python uses them for other

difficult maths
This means that they are great for doing maths

A program that doesn’t allow input of data, is
useless
You need to be able to take information in,
process it and then output the information
