When you compile source code where the variables stored?

When you compile source code, the variables are stored in memory during program execution. The compiler translates the source code into machine code, which allocates memory for variables in different segments, such as the stack (for local variables) and the heap (for dynamically allocated memory). The specific location and management of these variables depend on the programming language, the compiler, and the architecture of the system. Additionally, constants and global variables may be stored in separate memory regions.
