How to get values of input pins?

Hi,

I’m new to vvvv and need a little help.

How do I work with values of input pins. I need the latest values to calculate the new value. Like in other languages it would be something like this:

variable = variable + 1
or
variable = variable * 1.2

And why can’t I do a positive feedback:
Pluging the output of a +(value) node into the input of the same node. Would be the same like abhove or similar.

How would you do this in vvvv?

Thanks for your help.
