var.'''store''' is a function that is part of the Var Library.
<br>
The function set the content of a variable in the current document. Returns nil when the operation succeeded, otherwise an error message.<br>
== Syntax ==
var.'''store(varname, data)'''<br> stores data in the variable varname (must be a string).
== Example ==
<source lang="lua">
function on.create()
var.store("sol","very very very many")
end
function on.paint(gc)
variable = var.recall("sol") --assuming that sol exists
gc:drawString("The diameter of the sun is " .. tostring(variable) .. " KM", 10, 10, "top")
end
</source>
This code retrieves the content of the variable sol (string), and prints it on the screen.
