What is the difference Between Mapping parameter and variable

Answer Posted / abhinav

Mapping parameter is an option in Informatica where, at the
mapping level, you can specify the value to be used.

For example, if there is a field called START_DATE, the
value for this date can be specified by either passing it
as a variable at the mapping level or storing the value in
a parameter file, which will be read during the session is
run.
