The put statement sets field or variable values:
put <expression> into <field reference> put <expression> into <variable reference>
The following are examples for put statements:
put 5 into x put "hello" into field "Greeting" put field "Amount" / 100 * field "Percent" into field "Tax"
Note that in the case of variables, you have the alternative to use the more direct assignment, as follows:
x = 5
