Hi all,
Is there a way to limit the scope of variables in a stretch of code? This can
be useful with temporary index variables in for-loops, but it can be nice in
many other contexts (though one should probably be more aggressively putting
stuff into functions if this kind of housekeeping becomes necessary).
I don't think this is possible, but I was happily surprised with the support for
closures and subfunctions so I thought I would ask....
I *think* in newer versions of C, if you declare a variable inside a block, that
variable goes out of scope at the end of the block. Schematically:
begin
for myind = 1:10
blah += myind
endfor
endbegin
## now myind would be gone
