scope
     
         the scope of an identifier is the region of a
        program source within which it represents a certain thing.
        this usually extends from the place where it is declared to
        the end of the smallest enclosing block begin/end or
        procedure/function body.  an inner block may contain a
        redeclaration of the same identifier in which case the scope
        of the outer declaration does not include is "shadowed" or
        "occluded" by the scope of the inner.
