42,016 Pointscreating a primitive type variable generally looks like this:
dataType variableName = value;
the challenge tells you that the data type needs to be float, the variable name needs to be radius, and the value needs to be 14.5

6,646 PointsFloat will be your datatype, your variable name is radius and the number you are assigning is the value. So for example if I was asked to create a float named bubbles and give it a value of 5.1 knowing that (dataType variableName = value;)
so that would become
float bubbles = 5.1;
