Introduction

Variables in python are basically reserved memory locations to store some values that are likely to change. While Python is a completely object-oriented language, all variables in Python are objects.

Python doesn’t require variables to be explicitly declared, rather declaration occurs when a value is assigned to a variable. The assignment operator (=) is used to assign a value to a variable.

Examples of Variables in Python

a = 10           # integer value assigned to a variable                  
name = "Joker"   # string value assigned to name variable
p = q = r = 20   # multiple assignment

In the above code, variables ‘a’ and ‘name’ are assigned values 10 and Joker respectively. Python also supports multiple assignments i.e., assigning single values to multiple variables.
