I'm looking for the LC equivalent to the JavaScript eval() function. For
example, if I have a variable called "tAddress" and I want an LC statement
to assign a value to it, I'd like to say something like put "202 Main
Street" into eval("tAddress").That may sound silly because if I, the programmer, know the name of the variable, I should say put "202 Main Street" into tAddress. But I don't know the name of the variable because it will be generated by a handler. For example, if my handler reads a name-value pair from some file: LastKnownAddress="202 Main Street" then I want to create a variable called LastKnownAddress and set its value to "202 Main Street". In JS, I would use eval(). What can I use in LC? It's hard to find things like that in the docs when you don't know what they are called. Thanks!
