Replying to [comment:12 kcrisman]:
>`var('u')` injects things into the global namespace as well, so this is
redundant.
I didn't know this happened! That's pretty neat. Why do we have
{{{
u = var('u')
}}}
in the tutorial then? Is
{{{
var('u')
}}}
shorthand for u = var('u'), or does it do something a little different?
