I presume that means that you don't want them accessible by code further down. The solution I presented solves exactly that problem.	[reply]

Thank you, I thought so. Would you just call that a block?	[reply]
Re^5: Declare Variable in Loop by ikegami (Patriarch) on Mar 26, 2010 at 22:45 UTC
Yes, or a bare block. I might also call it a scope since it creates one. ("I created a scope for your variables.") Furthermore, it is sometimes called "bare loop", since it really is a loop that executes exactly once. `redo` causes the loop to restart, and `next` and `last` exit it. It's only called a bare loop when one of those is used as well. Update: lidden pointed out that I grouped `next` with `redo` when I should have grouped it with `last`. Fixed.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
