Using variables as Strings
I just realized that the variables created aren't just limited to doubles and integers, they can be Strings (chains of characters (letters)) as well.
I just wanted to point this out. Maybe you've already known this, maybe not. But I think it'd be really useful in conjunction with the 'ask' block
Ready? Defend!

Re: Using variables as Strings
Yeah, I guess (answer) is like a variable that stores strings automaically. using strings in variables is helpful though, especially in RPG-type projects, you can have all your info, like your name and such.

Re: Using variables as Strings
Actually, for some projects I haven't uploaded, I use this quite often, but I believe most of us know that variables can be used as strings.
