a='C:\code'. cd 'C:\code' works fine but cd a gives error: Name is nonexistent or not a directory

How can I pass a "a" as address to change directory not the whole address?

[Steven Lord]

The following two cd calls do the same thing, changing directory to a directory named a.

cd a
cd('a')

The following two cd calls do the same thing, changing directory to the directory c:\code.

a = 'c:\code';

cd(a)
cd c:\code

The first set of cd calls does not do the same thing as the second set of cd calls.

See this documentation page for a description of how to use either the command syntax or the function syntax to call a function.
