- * Associates a variable and it's value to a node.

- * If a variable is already associated more with a node then the rank value
- * is used to differentiate them. By default the rank is set to 0 and can
- * be manually set by using the $rank argument. But, if left unspecified
- * the next available rank will automatically be used.
- *
- * If the variable does not exist then it will be added automatically to
- * prevent errors. However, modules developers should always add their
- * variables first before using. If the variable already exists then it
- * will simply be re-used.
- *
- * @param $nid
- * The node ID.
- * @param $name
- * The name of the variable to associated with the node.
- * @param $value
- * The value of the variable.
- * @param $rank
- * The rank of the value. Default to zero.
- *
- * @return TRUE|FALSE
- * Returns TRUE if the variable was associated with the node and false if
- * a failure occured.
