 ### Learning Outcomes
 Look through these now and then use them to test yourself after doing the assignment:
 
-* How do you declare a variable in javascript?
+* How do you declare a variable?

 * Which one should you use when?
 * What are the rules for naming variables?
 * What are operators, operands, and operations?
 * What is concatenation and what happens when you add numbers and strings together?
-* What are the different type of operators in Javascript?
+* What are the different type of operators in JavaScript?
 * What is the difference between `==` and `===`?
 * What are operator precedence values?
 * What are the increment/decrement operators?
-* What is the difference between prefixing and postfixing them?

 You can think of variables simply as "storage containers" for data in your code.  Until recently there was only one way to declare and use a variable in Javascript (the `var` keyword) but the latest versions of JavaScript include 2 more keywords that can be used depending on the situation. The following resources will tell you what you need to know!
 
 1. Read through [this variable tutorial](http://javascript.info/variables) as well. It covers the other methods of variable creation.  __Be sure to do the Tasks__ at the end of this article!  Information won't stick without practice!
-2. Sidenote:  It's mentioned in the above tutorial, but important enough to note specifically here.  `let` and `const` are both relatively new ways to declare variables in JavaScript.  In _many_ tutorials and in code across the internet you are likely to encounter `var`. Don't let it bother you!  You should stick to `let` and `const` for now. There is nothing inherently wrong with `var`, but in a few small cases it's behavior is not what you would expect.  In most cases `var` and `let` behave exactly the same. The precise difference will be explained later.
