_Added in 1.8.8_ */var [-gns] <%var> [[= ]value]* Sets the value of local variable %var to the specified value. Syntax can be either _var %var = value_ or _var %var value_. Multiple variables can be set in one line using comma as separator, _var %var1 = value, %var2 = value2_. *Switches* -s - Display variable assignment value. -g - Creates a global variable instead. -n - Treat the value as plain text, even if arithmetic operators are used. *Parameters* <%var> - The variable to set. [[= ]value] - Value to set the variable to. (can be a single arithmetic expression, see [[Arithmetic Operators]]) *Example*
alias factorial {
  var %result = 1, %x = $1
  while (%x) {
    var %result = %result * $v1
    dec %x
  }
  return %result
}
