* Sets a variable and its value.
*
* The variable will be extracted to the local scope of the template with
* the same name given as parameter to the method. So setting a variable
* named "title" will result in a $title variable available to the template.
*
* The value can be a string, a number or a PhpTemplate instance. In the
* latter case, the variable content will be the result of the whole parsed
* template of the PhpTemplate instance.
*
* The proper method for setting arrays is setArray().
*
* @since 1.1
* @param string $name Name of the variable.
* @param string|number|PhpTemplate $value variable content.
* @see setArray()
