[Gambas-user] variable declaration everywhere ???

[Bruce]

Well, I haven't tried it yet but a few things pop into my mind.

Consider a method that has lots of use of "throw away" indexers/iterators,
For idx as integer = 0 to things.max
   dosomething(thing[idx])
next
...
For idx = 0 to others.max
   dosomthingelse(others[idx])
next
...
For each idx as float in floatarray
   dowhatever(idx)

etc
Is it going to redefine idx each time?
