SetValue[ <Object A>, <Object B> ]
If A is a free object or a Point restricted to Path or Region, its value is set to current value of B (i.e. A doesn't change value if B is changed afterwards).
Example: If f is a function, SetValue[f,RandomElement[{cos(x),3x+2,ln(x)}]] defines, at random, f as being one of the functions proposed in the list.


SetValue[ <Boolean b>, <0|1> ]
Sets the state of a boolean / check box : 1 = true, 0 = false
Example: If b is a boolean, SetValue[b,1] sets the boolean b as true.
SetValue[ <List L>, <Number n>, <Object B> ]
Sets n-th element of the free list L to the current value of B. Number n can be at most 1 + length of L.

Comments

SetValue in scripting[edit]

If you want to change value of an object in Scripting, always use SetValue rather than =. See Responsive Applets for more information.
