The variable Statement
variable is a statement you already know how to use, and it is included here only to reinforce the idea of a statement being similar to a complete sentence in English. Therefore, a variable statement such as
var this_year = 2001
says to create a variable called this_year and assign it the value 2001. That's a complete sentence.
