"global var" will give you a global variable named "var".

You can, but you probably don't want to. What's your use case? Example
code and what you'd like it to do would be helpful.

"global var" will give you a global variable named "var".

Whether this advice is correct or not depends greatly on what the OP means by
'global'

Module global, it's right, application global it's wrong. Given the nature of
the question, I suspect the latter.

Cheers,
Nick.

And even there, one must be careful. "global var" won't really give you
a global variable; it will cause the name "var", when used locally, to
refer to a pre-existing module-level reference "var". No variables are
actually created in the execution of "global var".
