I'm still struggling a bit to wrap my head around local and global variables and how they work. I'm getting better with this, but here's one question I have:

In AS3, if I declare a variable inside of a function then I know that it isn't going to be available to the rest of the class:

1
2
3

public function doSomething():void {
    var onlyHere:String = new String("inaccessible outside function");
}
