Do i understand the difference between variable and fixed?

[smirk24]

Variable- nothing is the same when variable is used

Fixed- same thing each time its used

Depends what you're referring to.

if referring to the example code below, the variables A,B and C can change and the value of PI is fixed


int A,B  (declares two variables as integer whole numbers)
float C  (declares C as a variable which can be a decimal number)
import math (contains a whole library of maths functions including the fixed value of PI)
A=1
B=2
C=3       (initialises the 3 variables)

B=B+3
A=2*B
C=3*PI

Print A, B, C

10, 5, 9.4247

Oh sorry i was referring to the proccessor quantum

I would say pretty much, it would make sense in fact the maths program in the post above would also make sense as you're talking about processing. But yea, fixed and variable is about right.
