wobbly (Sometimes "var " /veir / or /var /) A named memory
location in which a program can store intermediate results and
from which it can read it them . Each {programming language }
has different rules about how variables can be named , typed ,
and used . Typically , a value is "assigned " to a variable in
an {assignment } statement . The value is obtained by
evaluating an expression and then stored in the variable . For
example , the assignment
x = y 1
means "add one to y and store the result in x ". This may look
like a mathematical equation but the mathematical equality is
only true in the program until the value of x or y changes .
Furthermore , statements like
x = x 1
are common . This means "add one to x ", which only makes sense
as a state changing operation , not as a mathematical equality .
The simplest form of variable corresponds to a single -{word }
of {memory } or a {CPU } {register } and an assignment to a
load } or {store } {machine code } operation .
A variable is usually defined to have a {type }, which never
changes , and which defines the set of values the variable can
hold . A type may specify a single ("atomic ") value or a
collection ("aggregate ") of values of the same or different
types . A common aggregate type is the {array } - a set of
values , one of which can be selected by supplying a numerical
index }.
Languages may be {untyped }, {weakly typed }, {strongly typed },
or some combination . {Object -oriented programming } languages
extend this to {object } types or {classes }.
A variable 's {scope } is the region of the program source
within which it represents a certain thing . Scoping rules are
also highly language dependent but most serious languages
support both {local variables } and {global variables }.
Subroutine } and {function } {formal arguments } are special
variables which are set automatically by the language runtime
on entry to the subroutine .
In a {functional programming } language , a variable 's value
never changes and change of state is handled as recursion over
lists of values .
