[asterisk-users] Problem with AGI Script

[Matt]

What exactly does the write("SET VARIABLE myvariable"); do?

I understand the Set(CALLERID.... sets the calleridnumber equal to
${myvariable}, but then do you use the write to read that in?  Or is that to
dump something back out?

Just want to make sure I understand clearly.
