difference between var and let

var is function scoped and let is block scoped. Let's say you have:
function understanding_var() {
	if (1 == 1) {
    	var x = 5;
        console.log('the value of x inside the if statement is ' + x);
    }
    console.log(x);
} 
//output: the value of x inside the if statement is 5
		  5

function understanding_let() {
	if (1 == 1) {
    	let x = 5;
        console.log('the value of x inside the if statement is ' + x);
    }
    console.log(x);
} 
//output: the value of x inside the if statement is 5
		  Uncaught ReferenceError: x is not defined
          
var is defined throughout the entire function, even if it's inside the if 
statement, but the scope of let is always within the curly braces, not outside
it, even if the conditional statement is inside the function.

difference between var, let, const

// var is a function scope ***
if(true){
    var varVariable = 'This is var';
    var varVariable = 'This is var again';
}

console.log(varVariable); // This is var again

// let is a block scope ***
if(true){
    let letVariable = 'This is let';
    let letVariable = 'This is let again';

    // let variable can't re-define but we can re-assign value


    console.log(letVariable); // let letVariable = 'This is let again';^SyntaxError: Identifier 'letVariable' has already been declared
}

console.log(letVariable); //ReferenceError: letVariable is not defined



// const variable can't re-define and re-assign value
// const is a block scope ***
if(true){
    const constVarible = {
        name: 'JavaScript',
        age: '25 years',
    };
    constVarible.name = 'JS';

    console.log(constVarible) // {name: 'JS',age: '25 years'} <= we can update const variable declared object 
}
