Answer variable cannot be reset?

I may be wrong but I am unable to see a way to reset the answer variable to null after it has been set in a program without reopening the SNAP! file.

That means if I'm writing code and want to make interactive changes the answer variable cannot be reset.

I personally don't see why there is a ask block and an answer reporter rather than just an ask and wait reporter. Just don't show the answer. You can set a variable to the answer after you get it.

Hi @chriisols and welcome to our Snap! community!

answer sensing block stores the last answer. You can't reset it with Snap! primitives.

But it you need it, you can use your own "answer" variable and do whatever you want: sync it with answer reporter, use it, reset it...

Something like:
customanswer
