☜	KVALUE M[UMPS] by Example					☞

Approved for inclusion in a future M[UMPS] language standard.

KValue ^A(3)
deletes the value of global variable ^ABC(3), without affecting descendants of this variable.

KValue (A,B,C)
deletes the value of all unsubscripted local variables, except for the variables A, B and C. All subscripted occurrences of local variables are unaffected.

Examples with naked references:

KValue VARIABLE
Set ^ABC(1,2)="reset naked indicator"
; naked indicator is now ^ABC(1,
KValue ^(3,4)
; naked indicator is now: ^ABC(1,3,
; Actual reference is: ^ABC(1,3,4)
