Abstract
We often want to use data manipulation algorithms and functions that are applied to specified variables. These algorithms and functions usually cannot (and should not) be described using LSC-style interactions between objects but are better viewed as external pieces of computation or logic to be worked into the scenarios. In this chapter we discuss these, and the assignment statements that can be used to apply them.

Note
Even though the summation operation is simple and could have been provided by the Play-Engine itself, we consider it, for the sake of the example, as a function taken from the application domain, which could not be provided by a general purpose tool.
