Is "fill in the variable with" idiomatic?
For example:
I didn't fill in the variable with a custom value yet, don't use it.
I didn't fill in the variable with a custom function yet, don't use it.
I am not sure if we can use fill in in order to say write something and assign it to it, or fill a value inside an empty bracket or already written equal sign.
It isn't "idiomatic", but I don't really think you mean "idiomatic" either. This is terminology.
I believe the correct terminology you are looking for is "assign the variable a value".
I didn't assign the variable a custom value yet, don't use it.
