What is binding

Alright, it’s been almost 20 years since I did any kind of programming, so I’m going back through JavaScript because I haven’t used it in a while. I have surfed the web and re read the book. I need to have someone break down binding for me and what it’s used for. I’m struggling with that.

Thank you in advance

I believe binding is what you call associating a variable with a value. It is a new terminology to me as well.
