Comment (by afleckenstein):

 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?
