| (...) I got clarification from Tufts University: The text "Variable 0 = 0" should have read "Variable 0 = Event Register". * Variable 0 is the Red Container * = 0 is sort of a typo I believe a change from "= 0" to "Event Register" will be in the (...)

I suspect that the 0 means "the event register". The designation is sure confusing. To (...) (20 years ago, 27-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
