Research direction

The issue names only the variables5 exercise and does not identify a file or test. Start by locating that exercise and reviewing its instructions alongside nearby curriculum exercises; done means the exercise’s purpose and placement address the concern about shadowing.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

A-exercises C-enhancement P-medium

It teaches about shadowing, which is not really useful if used like this (nor is it appropriate at this point in the curriculum).
