Hi guys, I am a recent Ruby convert (from PERL), and I am wondering if there
is a way to get some of the behavior that I am
comfortable with with regards to scope.

In PERL the following code:

  my $var=1;
  {
  my $var=2;
  print "inner=$var\n"
  }
  print "outer=$var\n"

yields:

inner=2
outer=1

However in Ruby, I'm not sure how to get the same behavior.  I tried:

  var=1
  begin
  var=2
  print "inner=#{var}\n"
  end
  print "outer=#{var}\n"

which yields a different output than the PERL code.  Is this type of thing
possible in Ruby without creating a class?

Thanks!
