Welcome back to Code Chef. Ever wondered
how programs remember values and decide
where they can be used? Today we'll
explore variables, scope, and constants
in Java. The foundation of storing and
protecting data in your programs. Think
of variables like labeled jars in your
kitchen. You can put sugar in one jar,
flour in another, but you can only
access them where they're placed. On the
shelf, in the pantry, or on the table. A
constant is like a jar you've sealed. It
always holds the same ingredient.
In Java, a variable is named storage for
data. Scope defines where that variable
is accessible. And a constant declared
with the final keyword can't be changed
once assigned. Scope prevents mistakes.
A variable inside a block exists only
there. Try using it outside and your
program throws an error. This keeps code
safe and organized. Here's a simple
example. We declare a variable age and
assign it the value 21.
We also declare a constant pi with the
value 3.14.
Inside an if block, we calculate adult
years as age minus 18 and print it.
Outside the block, we print pi. Step by
step, the program first assigns 21 to
age, then checks if age is greater than
18. Since that's true, adult years is
printed. Finally, pi is displayed. The
output shows adult for 3 years and pi is 3.14.
3.14.
There are also some handy features. You
can declare multiple variables in one
line like intx= 5, y= 10. And you can
use constants in calculations such as
final int days equals 7 and then
calculate total as days x times 2 which
gives 14. These features make your code
cleaner and less errorprone. Now it's
your turn. Try the beginner friendly
code chef problem. Calculate age and
constants. Write a program that
calculates your age in months using a
variable and prints a constant value
like pi. Today you learned that
variables store data, scope controls
where they're accessible, and constants
keep values fixed with the final
keyword. Keep practicing and applying
these basics. Code, debug, repeat. Build
