The `Scratch` method within a shortcode creates a [scratch pad] to store and manipulate data. The scratch pad is scoped to the shortcode, and is reset on server rebuilds.
{{% note %}}
With the introduction of the [`newScratch`] function, and the ability to [assign values to template variables] after initialization, the `Scratch` method within a shortcode is obsolete.
