If I run this in strict mode, it works as expected (printing 42). 1372908 1 saam 2017-11-16 17:15:31 -0800 (In reply to Adam Klein from comment #0) > Test case: > > { > let a = 42; > function f() { return a } > print(f()) > } > > This throws "ReferenceError: Can't find variable: a". If I run this in > strict mode, it works as expected (printing 42). We don't support this in global scope. We do support it inside functions and I believe eval. We still need to implement it for the global scope. e.g, replace outer {} with function (and maybe eval) and it works. 1959915 2 syg 2023-06-05 10:35:49 -0700 Friendly ping.
