look at this code (you can copy it to Rebol):
a: 0
b: 'a
c: to-set-word 'a
reduce [to-set-word 'a 1]
a
reduce [to-set-word b 1]
a
reduce [:c 1]
a
reduce [c 1]
a
Results:
>> a: 0
== 0
>> b: 'a
== a
>> c: to-set-word 'a
== a:
>> reduce [to-set-word 'a 1]
== [a: 1]
>> a
== 0
>> reduce [to-set-word b 1]
== [a: 1]
>> a
== 0
>> reduce [:c 1]
== [a: 1]
>> a
== 0
>> reduce [c 1]
== [1]
>> a
== 1
