#, = - User or System Variable reference
The ‘#’ character is used to reference a macro or a user or system variable. For variables that can be written, the ‘=’
is used to assign to them. General purpose user variables are #100 to #149 and #29000 to #31999.

The floating point value if defined by
a G65 call, 0.0 otherwise.
These can be used as private, local
variables in any program or
subprogram except in custom macro
M functions. In custom macro M
functions, the macro arguments are
passed in by reference.
