You'll notice that the syntax is very similar to the scalar variables. The only difference is we're using an at sign instead of a dollar sign. You can see that we still have two approaches. The first one is what we use in the variables section of the script file or keyword file, and the second one can be used directly inside of a test case or keyword. Since there are multiple values inside the variable, the syntax for retrieving data is different from a scalar variable. You can see that I'm still using log, but again I've changed the dollar sign to @, and at the end here…
