Hi, How can I create a local variable from text in ToExpression? test[] := Module[{result = 0}, ToExpression["result=1"]; result] test[] will return 0 How can I make it return 1? (here ToExpression is creating a global variable; result=1, even though it is placed inside the Module) Sincerely Karl Daggfeldt
