var, final, and const Explained

Choose between mutable, run-time, and compile-time values.

Three Ways to Name a Value

In Dart you store data in named boxes called variables. The keyword you pick decides whether that box can ever change.

Use var when a value will change later. Dart still figures out the type for you, so var is convenient and safe.

var score = 0;
score = 10;
