Hey, I'm writing this report and I'm writing about variables.. I'm just checking to see if this is a good description:
Variables are used in programming to allocate specific memory locations for data, Variables enable the programmer to give a specific name to where the information is stored in memory and then enables the programmer to store and retrieve the information using the given name
Is that.. rubbish or..?
Thanks for any help!
I'd agree with the second sentence. I wouldn't say anything about allocating memory.

I agree with David (except there's only one sentence :icon_wink:)
The memory aspect actually is more confusing, so don't mention it. It seems immaterial to me in a description unless you are describing the lowest level of programming.
