For example, the version number:

2.7.6.3.1

indicates that it is:

version 2

Access to Version

In REBOL, you can get the version number from the system object:

  print system/version
   2.7.6.3.1

In addition, you can get the product name with:

  print system/product
   core

And also the build date:

 print system/build

Newer versions also include words for platform identification:
