Syntax[edit]
LET variable = value
Description[edit]
The command LET is used to assign a value to a variable. Variables are used as a temporary place to store numbers, strings or time values. Variables can be up to 15 characters in length.
Example[edit]
Give the variable ‘x’ the value 10
LET x = 10
Add 1 to the current value of the variable ‘x’ and put the result into the variable ‘turns’
LET turns = x+1
Put the time value 10 seconds into the variable ‘MyTime’
LET MyTime = :10:0
Put a string of text into the variable ‘MyText’. This can be useful where a long string of text is needed at a number of points in a program. Rather than typing the string in every time the variable can be printed.
LET MyText = "This is a message"
