<P>
 
The <em>integer</em> declaration must be made immediately after a 

<A HREF=r37_0040.html>begin</A> (or other variable declaration such as 
<A HREF=r37_0216.html>real</A> 
and 
<A HREF=r37_0218.html>scalar</A>) and declares local integer variables. They are
 
initialized to 0.

syntax: </H3>

<P>
<em>integer</em>&lt;identifier&gt;{,&lt;identifier&gt;}* 
<P>
<P>
<P>
&lt;identifier&gt; may be any valid REDUCE identifier, except 
<em>t</em> or <em>nil</em>. 
<P>
<P>
Integer variables remain local, and do not share values with variables of 
the same name outside the 
<A HREF=r37_0040.html>begin</A>...<em>end</em> block. When the 
block is finished, the variables are removed. You may use the words 

<A HREF=r37_0216.html>real</A> or 
<A HREF=r37_0218.html>scalar</A> in the place of <em>integer</em>. 
<em>integer</em> does not indicate typechecking by the 
current REDUCE; it is only for your own information. Declaration 
statements must immediately follow the <em>begin</em>, without a semicolon 
between <em>begin</em> and the first variable declaration. 
<P>
<P>
Any variables used inside <em>begin</em>...<em>end</em> blocks that were not 
declared <em>scalar</em>, <em>real</em> or <em>integer</em> are global, and any 

change made to them inside the block affects their global value. Any 

<A HREF=r37_0188.html>array</A> or 
<A HREF=r37_0345.html>matrix</A> declared inside a block is always global.
