sub num1 2
div num1 5
add num1 3
mod num1 6
// show result
writeln "OS/%num1%"
// PART3 /// INDIRECT METAS //////////////////////////////////////
// set up a normal meta
seta first "HELLO"
// set up a meta that contains the value of another meta
// second will contain the string '%first%'
// third will contain the string 'HELLO'
seta second "%%first%%"
seta third "%first%"
// change the value of first
seta first "HI"
// third still contains HELLO, since it was assigned directly
// second still contains %first% and evaluates to the current
// value of first
