Discussion Undefined variable shows up in list as if it were already declared

[matharoo]

Don't know if this is supposed to happen, but I find it weird that a variable that hasn't been declared before shows up in the variable list just while typing it. Shouldn't there be some sort of differentiation between a variable that has been declared and something you're just typing?

You wrote moving in the if statement before. So now it exists in autocomplete.

Try write myvariable on a line. Note you dont get any autocomplete. Then go to the next line and start write myvariable. Now it shows up in the list.

I get that, but does it really have to show "movi" in the variable list?

If you wait too long, or start to delete text using backspace, variable will be added. It will get removed on changing line. It's because code gets parsed against variables as you wrote, instead of having some sleep margin, or only after line change (by arrrows/mouse/enter).
