# Variables and Outputs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Terraform language includes a few kinds of blocks for requesting or
|
||
|
|
publishing named values.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Input Variables](/language/values/variables) serve as parameters for
|
||
|
|
a Terraform module, so users can customize behavior without editing the source.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Output Values](/language/values/outputs) are like return values for a
|
||
|
|
Terraform module.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Local Values](/language/values/locals) are a convenience feature for
|
||
|
|
assigning a short name to an expression.
