Standard variables in BeasScript always defined with setvar

And this is always type string in window regional setting format.

 

Many functions available to work with this type of variables

Example: Add 2 numeric

 

setvar=a=5
setvar=b=6
setvar=result=%numadd(a,b)
// return 11

 

Note: if you must work with Date or numeric values, it is better to work with decimal and date variables, otherwise you will always have issues with regional format settings.
