32-bit MASM program Initializing variables

I am writing a 32-bit MASM program to do numerous arithmetic. I want to initialize variables in my program such as num , val , etc.. in the declaration only once and only the first time. How do I do numerous arithmetic operations without re-initializing the variables?

ex:

num = 122             ; Initialize in declaration
val = 9               ; Initialize in declaration
res = val + num
cout << "res = " << res;

----------------------------- How do I continue to compute without re-initializing num and val???

num = 42
val = 100
val = val - num
cout << "val = " << val;

so do this only once in program:

num dword 122
val dword 9

Thanks in advance.

I figured it out. It was as simple as:

num dword 122                  ; Initialize num
val dword 9                    ; Initialize val

mov num, 42                    ; NOW num = 42 
mov val, 100                   ; NOW val = 100

Thanks for the comments and response!
