<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Normally in MiniScript, whenever a variable a used in an expression, if it refers to a function, that function is automatically invoked. The <c>@</c> operator suppresses this invocation, allowing you to work with a function reference without invoking it.<br />
<br />
=== Example ===<br />
<br />
Try the following at any interactive MiniScript [[REPL]]:<br />
<br />
<ms>f = rnd // makes f contain the result of calling [[rnd]]<br />
f // prints that result<br />
f // prints that SAME result again (f is just a number<br />
f = @rnd // makes f refer to the [[rnd]] function<br />
f // invokes f, and prints a random number<br />
f // invokes f again, printing a DIFFERENT result<br />
</ms></div>JoeStrout
