Question

Can someone please explain this variable example on the Less.org documentation:

It is also possible to define variables with a variable name:

@fnord: "I am fnord.";
@var: 'fnord';
content: @@var;

Which compiles to:

content: "I am fnord.";

The part that confuses me is the double @.

Thanks.

Answer 1

This statement explain itself

It is also possible to define variables with a variable name:

So: content: @@var; is actually content: @fnord; which is content: "I am fnord.";

NOTE: You can consider @@ as a pointer notation @ as a variable
