2,3,4 ,pi,9.8 etc have a fixed value , so these are called as constants /*now something whose value can be changed i.e, can vary ... then we call it as variable , see my previous answer , i changed value of x from 2 to 4 ... so x is a variable*/

variable means which can vary ie can take different values for example::: int x=2; System.out.println(x); x=4; System.out.print(x);

Simply ,Variable is a container that stores the data . e.g : string Name="Kedar"; in above e.g string is data type, Name is variable name, and "Kedar" is data for Name variable

Variable is the box were you create to store data into, to re-use them when your program runs. it's called variables cause they will vary "change" while your programs runs.
