- The higher scope is also the script from which the function has been called.
in script2.sqf:_a = 2;in script1.sqf:_a = 1; call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "script2.sqf"; hint format ["%1", _a];
Game will display 2.
Insertingprivate "_a"in the function prevents the change and so number 1 will be displayed on the screen. - Posted on February 25, 2015 - 17:06 (UTC)

- Recursive loops require the use of private. Without it, your variables will be overwritten.

This command is similar to javascript's let keyword.
EDIT: in the way that it scopes the variable to the innermost scope. Otherwise, let and private can behave differently - Lou Montana (talk)
