Function names may not be used as variable names

Scroll Prev Up Next More

This compiler error will occur if you try to use the name of a built-in function as variable name.

 

For example:

var 
    NumDaysInMonth // this is the name of a built-in function !
begin
 

This error often occurs when naming variables that start with "num"(presumably for "number"). In those cases it is important to remember to put the "n" prefix at the front.
