    There are three types of variables: local, instance, and static. Local variables are declared within methods and can only be used there. Instance variables are declared within a class but outside methods, and each object instance has its own copy. Static variables are declared with the static keyword, only one copy exists for the class, and it can be accessed from any instance.

    VARIABLE

    A variable is a name of a memory location, there are 3 types . 2 types of data types primitive
    and non-primitive.
     Local
     Static
     Instance

    NOTE: variable is a combination of vary + able that means its value can be changed .

    E.g : int data= 50;// data is variable

    LOCAL VARIABLE : A variable declared inside the body of the method is called local variable. You can
    use this variable only within that method and the other methods in the class aren't even aware that
    the variable exists .A local variable cannot be defined with "static" keyword.

     Instance Variable: A variable declared inside the class but outside the body of the method,
    is called instance variable. It is not declared as static.

    Static variable: A variable which is declared as static is called static variable. It cannot be local. You can
    create a single copy of static variable and share among all the instances of the class. Memory allocation
    for static variable happens only once when the class is loaded in the memory.
