1 00:00:00,090 --> 00:00:08,190 Javascript variables can hold many data types including numbers strings arrays and objects. 2 00:00:10,930 --> 00:00:19,210 On this slide we can see that the first variable age contains a single numerical value sixteen. 3 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:23,530 The second variable last name stores a string. 4 00:00:23,690 --> 00:00:30,220 JOHNSON The variable cars stores multiple strings. 5 00:00:30,220 --> 00:00:37,940 This is known as an array will explore arrays in more detail later in this course. 6 00:00:38,030 --> 00:00:42,630 The last variable person is an object object. 7 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:49,350 Variables also store multiple values but each value is relevant to an assigned property. 8 00:00:50,980 --> 00:00:59,600 For this reason each name and value in an object is referred to as a single property in this case first 9 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:00,040 name. 10 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:06,200 John is our first property of the object person. 11 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:11,060 Don't worry if you find this confusing we'll work with objects later in this course.
