.H 1 "Variables"

You can interactively define scalar variables and arrays 
by entering declarations and assignment statements
in C syntax in the DSP++ statement entry area in the main window.
These variables can be used in arithmetic expressions entered in this
area and as parameter values that you are interactively prompted for.
You cannot enter expression when prompted for a parameter value.
You must either enter a numerical value or the name of a variable.

All variables you defined and their values can be listed
from the `variables' menu under `objects'.  This menu is
organized by the variable type. `MachWord' is the type of the simulator
you are using. In the standard simulators it is a 16
bit integer a and single precision floating point value. `AccMachWord'
is a double precision version of the same value that is typically
used to represent the increased accuracy of a processor's accumulator.
