You can control the scope of script execution by grouping statements into a block. The contents of a group cannot be referenced outside of the block.
Grouping commands is useful if you want to:
- Use a single statement to execute a group of statements in the desired order
- Create script modularity
- Define the visibility of local variables
You group statements by declaring a block within braces ({}):
if (test condition) { statement_1; statement_2; } |
For example:
Code Block |
---|
|
if ( 2 < 3 )
{
string $blah = "This worked";
print ($blah);
} |
Grouping examples
This example groups the statement to be executed for an IF conditional statement:
Code Block |
---|
|
float $MasterControl = 1;
float $MarkerControl = 1;
if ($MasterControl == 1 || $MarkerControl == 1)
{
select LFWT;
findTail 2;
cutKeys;
print ("Operation was run.");
} |
