25.182.1. UNDEF Details

[<<<] [>>>]

Note that when this command is called in a function then the local variable is undefined and the caller variable passed by reference is not changed. Therefore

sub xx(a) undef a end sub

q = 1 xx q print q

will print 1 and not undef.

On the other hand

sub xx(a) a = undef end sub

q = 1 xx q print q

does print undef.
