string to variable

[fabila]

in a program can you convert a string into a variable?

[Han]

Sure, if you initialize it to some value you can.

Code:


LOCAL mystring:="MyVar";

mystring:=mystring+":=0"; // mystring = "MyVar:=0"
CAS(mystring);

This creates a CAS variable named MyVar with an initial value of 0.

Thank you very much

An other way for this (in a CAS-Program) is

#("ABC_"):=4711;

This creates the global CAS-Variable ABC_ with value 4711. Of course this is also possible with a variable which contains a string:

#CDE_:=4712;

creates the global CAS-Variable ABC_ with value 4712, if the variable CDE_ has the value "ABC_".
