Yes that is a very useful thing in programming, or also if you want to increase something by more than one you just do variable = variable + 10 (or any other number) and then with that number you can do all sorts of mathematical equations to determine things within your program. Because Alice is for beginners, not many people use integers, they mainly use the objects and methods written for them. Variables are one of the most important parts of good programming though, and the Alice community should start using them more often if we want to start making more realistic games.
