Minecraft Bedrock Variables

I was thinking it would be helpful if there was a thing called variables for mcbe.

there would be commands like /getvar or /setvar that would either get a variables data,or set new variable data. The types of variables would be like

Num - this variable would store a number.

Char - this variable would store words or characters.

Coord - this variable would store coordanates.

For commands, there would be

/getvar - this command would get a variable. Syntax: /getvar [varname] [typeofvar] [command(optional)]

/setvar - this command would set a variable. Syntax: /setvar [varname] [type] [data]

/createvar -  this command would create a variable. Syntax: /createvar [type] [name] [data]

Maybe more??

there could also be a new type of commands for vars.(prob not)

 

That's my idea!

Thx

    This would be especially useful on Java edition as well! Love the idea, but would like to see it in both versions, as Java doesn’t have a reliable variable system. Also a couple of suggestions:


    1. Instead of /getvar and /setvar, it should be /variable get and /variable set (could be shortened to just /var

    2. There should be operations to these variables, eg /var operation [value]. (For example, /var operation exampleInteger addition 5, or /var operation exampleString join “Hello”)

    3. Some more types of variable: Boolean (stores True or False), Date (stores a date), Time (stores a time)

    This would be awesome. The amount of uses and purposes this could serve in command projects would be crazy.

    For coordinates, I think it would be nice to specify which to save as variables with arguments. And a way to include these in commands such as teleport and summon would be insanely useful.

    I hope to see this in the game sometime in the future. :]

    For the number vars they should make it so anywhere you can type numbers you can use the variables
