Now you’ll use a variable to quickly change your program. Variables are used to store some kind of data in a program that can be referenced elsewhere (often more than once).
Variables look different in different programming languages. In the code editor, there’s a line that looks like this:
message = 'Change the message!';
This line creates a message
variable and stores the Change the message!
text in it.
Later in the program, message
is used to reference that text inside drawName()
, meaning that the message
text appears on the screen.
Instructions
