Like, if you declare a variable in a function, can you make it global?

Function Something: Boolean;
 var
   public Booleantwenty: Boolean;
. . .

Asking because I saw that SCAR syntax highlighter catches "public" and "private".

Go try it and type public and private into SCAR, it highlights them.

EDIT: Can SCAR use 0 and 1 as Boolean values?

Well, c0de, does doing it as I used above work, or must I do a different configuration when I declare them? (The "public" variables of course.)



EDIT: Nope, no 0/1 for booleans.

program New;

procedure GlobalVar;
var
  public Hi: String;

begin
  Hi:='This should write in other proc.';
end;

procedure WriteGlobalVar;
begin
  WriteLn(Hi);
end;

begin
GlobalVar;
WriteGlobalVar;
end.

That doesn't work. Unless I am using it incorrectly.

Edit: Lol drunkenoldma missed public and private for bolding when using the Scar tag.

Edit2: I even tried putting the public after the variable name.

So why would you bother making a public variable if you can just make it global?

Messier coding etc.

Could come in handy.

As c0de said, its the same as global and local.

If you want to use numbers for booleans, you would have to use integeres and code as if they were booleans.

[php]
Number := 1;
If (Number = 1) then
[/php]

but i don't see the point really

SB, that wasn't the point. I could have used it to make a function with two results, one that would return 0 or 1, or something else. (Pending on a choice).

function functionname :integer; ?

The just make it return a different number based on the outcome.

RARG! I KNOW THAT! But I wanted to make sure someone wouldn't have to make an IntToBool function.
