ABSTRACT:
A variable replacement apparatus which replaces variable names in a text with corresponding variable values, each variable name formed by at least one character and each character in the variable name having a corresponding format. The apparatus includes a variable name extracting unit for extracting a variable name from the text. A variable value acquisition unit obtains a variable value corresponding to the variable name extracted by the variable name extracting unit. A variable name analyzing unit analyzes the corresponding format of each character forming the variable name and a variable value converting unit converts the variable value obtained by the variable value acquisition unit so that the variable value has a format which is determined in accordance with the corresponding format of each character forming the variable name. A variable replacing unit replaces the variable name in the text by the converted variable value.
