Now that you know a bit about variables, let’s code some ourselves!
We create or declare a variable by giving it a name and setting it equal to a value.
In the code editor, we’ve written out an example of a variable declaration. We’ve included one variable in the workspace, named one, and it’s currently set to 'grass'.
Instructions
Below variable ‘one’, declare a variable called two. Set variable ‘two’ to equal 'rocks'. Remember to pay attention to details, like punctuation.
Next, create a variable three and set it equal to 'forest'.
