METHOD OF RETRIEVING VARIABLE VALUES IN A DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM Abstract of the Disclosure A method is disclosed of storing and retrieving the value of a variable in the memory of a data processing system. The method includes storing a variable table in memory. The table has a header, a number of data pairs and the same number of variable reference entries. Each data pair consists of a tag that identifies a variable and an offset that indicates the address of the corresponding reference entry. The entry contains data that describes the number of elements in the variable and the number of fields in each element. The entry also has offsets that indicate the storage locations of the elements and fields of the variable. When a request to store or retrieve a variable value is received, the appropriate storage location is found by searching the table for the variable tag and then accessing the corresponding reference entry.
