3.1.2.1.1.2 Dynamic Variables</H2> <P>
A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#variable"><I>variable</I></A> is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> if one of the following conditions hold: <P>
<P><UL><P>
<LI> It is locally declared or globally proclaimed <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="d_specia.htm#special"><B>special</B></A>. <P>
<LI> It occurs textually within a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> that creates a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_binding"><I>dynamic binding</I></A> for a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#variable"><I>variable</I></A> of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#same"><I>same</I></A> <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_n.htm#name"><I>name</I></A>, and the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#binding"><I>binding</I></A> is not <I>shadowed</I>[2] by a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> that creates a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_l.htm#lexical_binding"><I>lexical binding</I></A> of the same <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#variable"><I>variable</I></A> <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_n.htm#name"><I>name</I></A>. <P>
<P></UL><P>
A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> can be referenced at any time in any <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#program"><I>program</I></A>; there is no textual limitation on references to <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variables</I></A>. At any given time, all <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variables</I></A> with a given name refer to exactly one <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#binding"><I>binding</I></A>, either in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_environment"><I>dynamic environment</I></A> or in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_g.htm#global_environment"><I>global environment</I></A>. <P>
The <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#value"><I>value</I></A> part of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#binding"><I>binding</I></A> for a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> might be empty; in this case, the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> is said to have no <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#value"><I>value</I></A>, or to be <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_u.htm#unbound"><I>unbound</I></A>. A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> can be made <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_u.htm#unbound"><I>unbound</I></A> by using <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_makunb.htm#makunbound"><B>makunbound</B></A>. <P>
The effect of <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#binding"><I>binding</I></A> a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> is to create a new <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#binding"><I>binding</I></A> to which all references to that <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> in any <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_p.htm#program"><I>program</I></A> refer for the duration of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#evaluation"><I>evaluation</I></A> of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> that creates the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_binding"><I>dynamic binding</I></A>. <P>
A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> can be referenced outside the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_extent"><I>dynamic extent</I></A> of a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> that <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#bind"><I>binds</I></A> it. Such a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#variable"><I>variable</I></A> is sometimes called a ``global variable'' but is still in all respects just a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> whose <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_b.htm#binding"><I>binding</I></A> happens to exist in the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_g.htm#global_environment"><I>global environment</I></A> rather than in some <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_environment"><I>dynamic environment</I></A>. <P>
A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#dynamic_variable"><I>dynamic variable</I></A> is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_u.htm#unbound"><I>unbound</I></A> unless and until explicitly assigned a value, except for those variables whose initial value is defined in this specification or by an <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_i.htm#implementation"><I>implementation</I></A>. <P>
