Explain the concept of data types in variables.

• Variables in programming languages are used to store data values. Data types specify the type of data that can be stored in a variable, such as integers, strings, or booleans. Different programming languages have different data types, and each data type has specific rules for how the data is stored and manipulated.

• Data types do not specify the type of data that can be stored in a variable

• Variables are not used to store data values in programming languages

• All programming languages have the same data types for variables

What is the difference between global and local variables?

• Global variables are accessible throughout the program, while local variables are limited to the scope of the function in which they are declared.

• Global variables are only used in functions, while local variables are used globally.

• Local variables can be accessed from any part of the program, while global variables are limited to specific functions.

• Global variables are declared within functions, while local variables are declared outside of functions.

How do you declare a variable in Python?

• value : variable_name

• variable_name = value

• variable_name : value

• value = variable_name

What is variable scope in programming?

• Variable scope refers to the color of variables in programming

• Variable scope is the speed at which variables are processed in programming

• Variable scope is the size of variables in programming

• Variable scope in programming refers to the visibility and accessibility of variables within different parts of the code.

What is variable naming convention?

• Naming variables based on their data type

• Rules and guidelines for naming variables in programming languages.
