Re: Declaring variables in a procedure?

new topic     » goto parent     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

If you define a variable inside a function/procedure, then try to declare
another variable, it will give you an error. Try something like this
instead, making all the variable declarations first, then defining them
afterward;

 integer x, y, z
 sequence other_stuff

 x = 1
 y = 2
 z = 3

 other_stuff = {}
