The definitive source would be the RPG Reference
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/infocenter but the summary would be that
MOVE copies (part of) a variable into (part of) another variable,
possibly converting type.  EVAL evaluates an expression.  If you have
experience with BASIC, EVAL is like LET and MOVE is like MID$.
