Variables are simply a name which represents a value or series of values. If you have used a spreadsheet then you have used variables. For example, in a spreadsheet column B row 4 might be the total sales for the month. In Excel you could name this cell to something like "monthlySales" then in other cells you could refer to that variable (cell) as either B4 or "monthlySales".

 

In Blox Basic you can create variables which have names and can hold values just like a spreadsheet cell can.
