Word origin
The term 'variable' originated from the Latin word 'variabilis', which means 'changeable'. In the context of computer programming, the concept of variables was introduced to allow for the dynamic manipulation of data within a program. Over time, variables have become a fundamental concept in programming languages, enabling developers to write more flexible and powerful code.
