variables

JavaScript Variables
A variable is used to store the data. It stores only one value.
Rules for the variable:
·         Variable names must begin with a letter
·         Variable names can also begin with $ and _ (but we will not use it)
·         Variable names are case sensitive (y and Y are different variables)
·         Both JavaScript statements and JavaScript variables are case-sensitive.

syntax:
var identifier;
Ex1:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<script>
var x=5;
var y=6;
var z=x+y;

document.write(x + "<br>");
document.write(y + "<br>");
document.write(z + "<br>");
</script>

</body>


</html>
Ex2: using Arithmetic operators
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<p>Given that y=5, calculate x=y+2, and display the result.</p>
<button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
function myFunction()
{
var y=5;
var x=y+2;
var demoP=document.getElementById("demo")
demoP.innerHTML="x=" + x;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Ex3:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script>
var person=new Object();
person.firstname="Rajendra";
person.lastname="prasad";
person.age=50;
person.eyecolor="blue";
document.write(person.firstname + " is " + person.age + " years old.");
</script>
</body>
</html>
Example program
<html>
 <head>
  <script language="JavaScript">
    var name=prompt("enter ur name", "Name");
  </script>
 </head>
 <body>
  <script language="JavaScript">
   document.write("<h2>Hello "+name+"</h2>");
  </script>
 </body>
</html>
