The scope of a variable declared inside of a function is:
a) local - within that function
b) within that file only
c) global

The correct answer for the given question is option(a) i.e Local - within that function .

Explanation:

The variable which is declared inside any function are called as local variable The scope and lifetime of local variable is inside that block or function only.

They cannot access outside the function.

Following are the example of local variable

#include <stdio.h> // header file

void fun(); // function prototype

int main()// main function

{

fun(); //calling function

print("%d",t); // it gives error because t is local variable cannot access in main function

return 0;

}

void fun()

{

int t=9;// local variable

printf("t is local variable which value is:");

printf("%d",t);

}

As we seen that t cannot access outside the function .So correct answer is option(a)
