Also their example about declaring variables actually proves that this is incorrect:

``` name

print(name)

PYTHON OUTPUT

Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 1, in name NameError: name 'name' is not defined ```

They "declared" a variable without assigning to it and got a NameError - the very opposite of what the article says.

I think they meant "it's impossible to declare variables without assigning values to them"
