Program itself is a form of data. So it can not hold a data.
It can only move the data to the storage (memory, harddisk... etc) or instruct an output device like printing/screen to recreate/re-represent/transform the data into something human can understand.
Yes. Java program data can be stored in RAM, in a file, sent across a network, or however else you (the programmer) wishes it to be stored.
Data that is currently available to be used. The program has it stored where it can readily get at it rather than having it stored out of easy reach.
PROGRAM
By accessing the setup program stored in ROM BIOS.
By stored-program computer, we mean a machine in which the program, as well as the data, are stored in memory, each word of which can be accessed in uniform time. Most of the high-level language programming the reader.
Program data can be stored in the program's data segment, on the stack or on the heap. Constants, static variables and global variables are always stored in the program's data segment. Local variables are always stored on the stack. Dynamic variables are always stored on the heap. User data is typically stored in files, but those files could exist literally anywhere, such as a local hard-disk drive, a file-server or "the cloud". However, data must be brought into working memory in order to operate upon it. Small amounts of data can be allocated within the data segment via static variables but generally you will use the heap. If the data is too large to fit into working memory all at once, use one or more temporary files on one or more local hard-disk drives and pull in what you need as and when you need it.
stored data can be changed frequently for variety of reasons, the system will provide modification to a data file without modifying the program and it also provides us way to reduce the maintenance of the program
A program is a type of data.A program in a computer is group of computer instructions or commands that, when loaded into memory, can be run by the computer processor to accomplish a task. Data is information that can be used by a computer program. It can be data in memory as part of the "workings" of a program, it can be stored in an area called a file or database from where it can be read and written.In modern computers, both data and program can exist in the same memory areas and on the same storage media. Programs are first made in a human readable text form and treated as data while it is being created and modified/edited. Another program (or programs) will convert this data into another form of data which can serve as a computer program.On most computer systems, program and data are stored as files. Usually a program is distinguished from other data by its name (its name will end with ".EXE") or by a special information designating the file as "executable". This is different on the IBM i platform (and its predecessors) where a program is maintained as a program object (*PGM) and data is stored as various types of data and file objects (*FILE).

True
Actually, you do not store information in any program. You store it in a file on a hard drive. The program is what lets you access the information. Usually, large amounts of data that can yield information is managed by a data base system.
program. Each variable has a name that serves as an identifier, allowing the program to reference and manipulate the stored value. Variables can hold different types of data, such as integers, strings, or booleans, and their values can be changed throughout the program's execution. This flexibility makes variables essential for managing data and controlling the program's behavior.
