VARIABLE

Expressions are used to define a quantity in terms of variables that are defined using the VARIABLE command or in terms of built in math functions (sin, cos, tan, and so on). The order in which commands appear is not important. Variable x could be a function of variable y, even though it appears afterward in the input file.
