Variables

Local variables can be declared within stored procedures using the DECLARE statement. Variable names follow the same naming rules as MySQL table column names and can be of any MySQL data type. You can give variables an initial value with the DEFAULT clause and assign them new values using the SET command, as shown in Figure 2-5.
