<h2 id="10-local-variables">10. Local Variables</h2>
<p>You can use <code>#let</code> API to declare local variables. The <code>#let</code> API takes an <strong>array</strong> as a paremeter, which has two elements:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>The first parameter:</strong> the <code>{{#let}}</code> statement which assigns any value to a variable</li>
<li><strong>The second parameter:</strong> the actual expression that will be evaluated</li>
</ol>
<p>Here's an example:</p>

<p>The local variable feature is important when you are using nested loops. You could use the <code>$root</code> variable to reach out of the current loop context, but this has limitations, because you can always only reach out to the root level.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>By using the <code>#let</code> API, you can define a variable at any level of a loop and have it accessible from anywhere further down the loop <strong>WITHOUT using the <code>$root</code> variable</strong>.</p>
