+bool
+
+nocache
+
+You can explicitly pass name/value pairs, or associative arrays
+containing the name/value pairs.
+
+If you pass the optional third `nocache` parameter of TRUE, the variable
+is assigned as nocache variable. See
+[`Cacheability of Variables`](#cacheability.variables) for details.
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> When you assign/register objects to templates, be sure that all
+> properties and methods accessed from the template are for presentation
+> purposes only. It is very easy to inject application logic through
+> objects, and this leads to poor designs that are difficult to manage.
+> See the Best Practices section of the Smarty website.
+
+
+    <?php
+    // passing name/value pairs
+    $smarty->assign('Name', 'Fred');
+    $smarty->assign('Address', $address);
+
+    // passing an associative array
+    $smarty->assign(array('city' => 'Lincoln', 'state' => 'Nebraska'));
+
+    // passing an array
+    $myArray = array('no' => 10, 'label' => 'Peanuts');
+    $smarty->assign('foo',$myArray);
+
+    // passing a row from a database (eg adodb)
+    $sql = 'select id, name, email from contacts where contact ='.$id;
+    $smarty->assign('contact', $db->getRow($sql));
+    ?>
+
+These are accessed in the template with
+
+
+    {* note the vars are case sensitive like php *}
+    {$Name}
+    {$Address}
+    {$city}
+    {$state}
+
+    {$foo.no}, {$foo.label}
+    {$contact.id}, {$contact.name},{$contact.email}
