If you are considering to use an auxiliary file, you really +need this package rather than the heavy I/O manipulation. + +Usage: + + 1. Declares a data variable in local scope or global scope. + + \newdata{<local variable name>} + \newdata*{<global variable name>} + + e.g. \newdata{Person} % Note: no backslash for variable declaration + \newdata*{Time} % Note: \Time is declared in global scope + + 2. Uses = or := to set value. The := version sets expanded value to variable. + + 1) Sets value as a single variable + + \Person = {Song Zhiwei} % Note: add backslash for declared variable + \Time := \today % Note: set the expanded result of \today to \Time + + 2) Sets value as an array. + + \Person[1] = {28.3} + + 3) Sets value as a multiple dimensional array. + + \Time[2,5,\thesection] = \today % Note: the value will be saved globally + % for the global variable + + 4) Sets value as an object. + + \Person[description] = {A Chinese gentleman.} + \Person[hair] = {black} + + 3.
