PYTHON BASICSBoxes with names
A variable is a name you give to a value so you can use it again. Write the name, an equals sign, then the value. From then on the name stands in for the value.
How it reads
sky = "wide open" stores the text on the right under the name sky
The name goes on the left, the value on the right of the =
print(sky) shows whatever sky is holding right now

Cloud tip: An = in Python means "put this value into this name". It is not the equals from math.
