What should I do if I want to examine one of my variables if it is in its
scope or no ?
Debbuger could do it in some why ?

Variables declared localy as far as I know should be destroyed by GC after
their scope ends.. I'm I right ? (rather not, but I have no idea what the
answer is)

- another good link (this one I have reed before writing on group - and then
I was wondering what:
"Scopes can be nested, and an inner scope may redeclare the meaning of a
name from an outer scope."
mean ? I asume that when I write another for() loop with the same int i
iterator I only redeclare it ?

What is the dipper (memory?) backgroud of this 'redeclare' ?

Sorry for all this questions but I need to know !!!

And once again, thanks for your help...
