This is certainly true, but there might be cases where one wants to keep certain results between sql statements and reuse them. While this conceptual solution is certainly not the Variable it sort of gets the job done. create temporary table vars (name text, value something); -- insert into vars set name="x", value=0; -- ... where something = (select value from vars where name="x")... I real life you might want to create better named temporary table directly with select and use its values without having to search through names. If this is slow you can attach in memory database which would then be used to store "variables".
