Dear Experts:
I am very appreciate your comments and help!
Actually I am a new comer from MATLAB. If the function
can see global variables, then it may output wrong results without
any error messages. For example, there is a gloabl variable named
v, and I write one funciton with one local variable x. However, in some
line,
I misspelled x to v, which would results in unexpected errors without
warning.
In summary, I want to disable the ability to make debugging easier.
Best.
