volatile variable is mainly used in multithreading environment. so let me explain it from that context.In a multithreading environment,for a variable which is not marked as volatile will be stored in local cache memory for each thread. Meaning each thread will have a local copy of the variable and they dont know about what value this variable is having in another thread. If a variable is marked volatile, then the updations to this variable will happen in the main memory and not in local cache
