Re^3: "use strict" and undeclared variables

As a rule of thumb, you should try to restrict the scope of a variable as much as possible. The former restricts @row life to the while block, while the other goes beyond. Anyway, I wouldn't classify this neither as "bad" nor as "buggy".

Io ho capito... ma tu che hai detto?

Anyway, I wouldn't classify this neither as "bad" nor as "buggy" I personally believe "error prone" may be more appropriate. Ain't it?	[reply]

Exactly. I was thinking of a more complex loop, and a more complex origin of @row's content. The possibility of contamining the array through some buggy code elsewhere, etc. But I didn't explain that more thoroughly- and it was perceived I came accross as rude :-( Sigh.	[reply]
