A variable is essentially a memory location (literally an address in your RAM) that you give can a name and refer to by its name rather than its memory address.
int i = 0;
This line of code asks the system for a free memory location capable of storing a 32bit integer and assigns its value to 0.
I hope this helps.

They're used when you don't know what their value's gonna be (e.g. when using if or switch) or when you need to use some value often (e.g. content from a file, which you would otherwise have to read every time you need that data).
Look around on the playground and you'll see.
