"Drop" verb issue

Code:
        drop(var/obj/0 in usr.contents)          //drops an item at your position
            Msg23("You drop [0].","[usr] drops [0].")
            0.loc = usr.loc


Problem description: final line gives error: expected expression

Partly I have no clue what this means; the other part is that I'm sure this should be working (it's in the correct mob -> verb section and all, and usr.loc is definitely a valid target, given as it's being referred to just fine in other places.

You'll probably recognise that from the ZBT 3; I'm still just learning this stuff, so I'm sure I've missed something obvious (will happily post full code if it helps). All the other verbs I'm using work fine, which is part of which I can't figure this out, and it's driving me up the wall. XD

Variables can't start with numbers.

Oh. *facepalm* right, I see what the problem is. Zilal uses a capital O, which looks exactly the same as a 0 in the typeface. Since I write everything down by hand instead of copying, I've been using 0s instead of Os.

Thanks.

EDIT: yeah, that worked. Thanks again.
