is most often used in programming but it is useful anytime you want to view a
variable’s value without affecting the stack.

The MEMORY catalog (

available memory. The catalog display has the following format:
where mm,mmm is the number of bytes of available memory and nnn is the amount
of used indirect variables.

By default, all direct variables from A to Z contain the value zero. If you store a non-
zero value in any direct variable, that variable’s value can be viewed in the VAR
Catalog (
