Special variables reserved by Murex
In Murex, there are five different classes of variables:
-
Local variables (scope limited to a function et al)
-
Module variables (scoped to a module)
-
Global variables (available to every function within Murex but not shared with processes outside of the Murex's runtime)
-
Environmental variables (available to every function and process -- internal and external to Murex)
-
Reserved variables
Reserved variables are data that are available to any code running within Murex and exposed as a variable.
Reserved variables are called reserved because they are read only.
Reserved variables are often also dynamic, returning different values based on contextual circumstances.
