Scope of a variable defines the part of code where the variable can be accessed or modified. It helps in organizing code by limiting where variables are available, preventing unintended changes or conflicts. Understanding scope is key to writing clear, efficient, and maintainable programs
Scope in a programming language is the block or a region where a defined variable will have its existence and beyond that region, the variable is automatically destroyed. Every variable has its defined scope. In simple terms, the scope of a variable is equal to its life in the program. The variable can be declared in three places These are:
Local Variables: Inside a given function or a block
Global Variables: Out of all functions globally inside the program.
Formal Parameters: In-function parameters only.
