If you can't do that then you can't program anything.

print "Hello world"

Variables are created automatically as you use them.

It's the programmer's life:
Have a problem, solve the problem, and have a new problem to solve.

lol true that is a good program. u could print lots of stuff. suppose u could change some colours or add a picture...

and to be helpful. to store your money.
money=100

to gain money:
money=money+1

or to loose:
money=money-1

and i bet i made a mistake there somewhere, i always do

I am a Christian and I know that God loves me. That is what makes my life so great!

I use variable extensively. Once you have enough code it become difficult to keep track of what object 20 is verses object 12. So I do things like

PlayerObj = 1
...
... Rotate Object PlayerObj, ...
...

It makes the code much more readable, especially 6-12 months later when you have forgotten what object 5 is. Some may think I use too many variables, but like I said, it helps to keep the code readable.
