## What is a variable?
Variables are things that are remembered by the BBC micro:bit. Variables can take a few formats and can have functions applied to them. For example, we could create a string, which is text. Or we could create a calculator that stores whichever number the user inputs as an integer, or whole number.

* We create a new variable called value and set it to 0
* The code runs forever and waits for the user to press the A button
* When the user does, value will be set to value + 1 (value will be incremented by 1)
* Value will then be displayed on the BBC micro:bit's LEDS
* Value will then be displayed on the @boardname@'s LEDS
* This effectively creates a counter
Variables can also be used for conditions with loops. See the 'Loops' section to learn about this.
