Algol W follows the scoping rules of Algol 60 - a function (called a procedure) or a label is only in scope within the block it is declared in and in blocks nested within that block. If a procedure, label, variable etc. is declared with same name in an inner block, |
|||
the outer definition is inaccessible. |
