- Delete
- Delete an object from the current set of AML objects.
- Usage
- Delete(name1, name2, ...)
- Arguments
- name1, name2,... (STRING) : names of the object to be deleted.
- Returned Object
- No value is returned.
- Description
- The objects passed as arguments are deleted from the set of AML objects. This means that the name of the corresponding variables is no longer used and that the corresponding memory zone is freed.
- Note
- Since the a AML variable is designated by its name, this name is always evaluated to the corresponding AML object and not to a STRING. Therefore, to apply Delete correctly to a variable whose name is var1 for instance, one has to explicitly write Delete("var1") or more simply Delete("var1") (the quote character before a STRING name suppress the evaluation of the STRING).

AML> Delete('i,'var1)
AML> ?
