Chapter 5 The Declaration Section The first two parts of an HP Pascal block are the heading and the declaration section. The heading specifies the name of the program, module, procedure, or function. The declaration section contains sections that define constants and user-defined types, and sections that declare labels, variables, procedures, functions, and modules. Each of these sections is introduced by an appropriate reserved word such as LABEL, CONST, IMPORT, MODULE, TYPE, VAR, PROCEDURE, or FUNCTION. A block need not include all of these sections. In HP Pascal, CONST, TYPE, VAR, MODULE, and IMPORT declaration sections can be intermixed and must follow label declarations and precede function or procedure declarations. This chapter describes constant definitions, label declarations, type definitions, and variable declarations. For information on procedure, function, module, and import declarations, see Chapter 7 .
