something called scope do a search for it in the docs...

The variable $abc ONLY exists inside proc A (and ONLY inside the { } it is defined between), so when you reference it inside proc B, proc B has no idea what it is. (i'll assume all your other syntax errors are just cos it's pseudo code! )

if you DID want this to work exactly as is, you'd have to declare $abc as a GLOBAL float.. but global vars are not really advised...
