\value

`\value{counter}`

The `\value` command produces the value of the counter named in the mandatory argument. It can be used where LaTeX expects an integer or number, such as the second argument of a `\setcounter` or `\addtocounter` command, or in

     \hspace{\value{foo}\parindent}

It is useful for doing arithmetic with counters.
