Variables

Variables : You can create variables very easily in Logo using "make name.of.variable value.of.variable". Consider the following example:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
make "a1 234 ; :a1 is the number 234
make "a2 "hello ; :a2 is the word "hello 
make "a3 [hello world] ; :a3 is the list [hello world]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can take the value of the variable using ":" in front of its name .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
:a1
:a2
:a3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
