You can use “context.setvalue”. To convert numbers in different formats
you can use the \convertnumber command.
\starttext
\startluacode
context.setvalue("One","1")
context.setvalue("Two","2")
\stopluacode
\define\Three{3}
\One:\Two:\Three
\blank
\startluacode
context.define({2},"\\CMDA","[One:#1,Two:#2]")
\stopluacode
\define[2]\CMDB{[One:#1,Two:#2]}
\CMDA{1}{2}
\CMDB{1}{2}
\blank
\convertnumber{R}{1400}
\stoptext
