Action scope
A variable that is declared in an action (also called a local variable) can only be referenced within the action. A variable that is a formal parameter of an action can only be referenced within the action. If a local variable declared in an action has the same name as a global variable declared at the monitor level, the local variable hides the global variable until the end of the action.
