Not even close. The second will create a compound variable stem.0 and
the first will cause the default value of any other compound variable
to be 0. Neither will effect the value of any existing variable with
stem stem. and neither has any effect on how many compound variables
you can create with that stem. Thus,
stem. = 0
stem.0 = 10
stem.20 = joe
say stem.20 stem.21
will write 'JOE 0'
