### F.1 Keywords

The following identifiers are keywords, and may not be used as variable or function names:

         break                   for
         case                    function
         catch                   global
         continue                gplot
         else                    gsplot
         elseif                  if
         end                     otherwise
         end_try_catch           return
         end_unwind_protect      switch
         endfor                  try
         endfunction             unwind_protect
         endif                   unwind_protect_cleanup
         endswitch               while
         endwhile

The following command-like functions are also speical. They may be used as simple variable names, but not as formal parameters for functions, or as the names of structure variables. Failed assignments leave them undefined (you can recover the orginal definition as a function using clear).

         casesen       echo          load          show
         cd            edit_history  ls            type
         chdir         format        more          which
         clear         help          run_history   who
         diary         history       save          whos
         dir           hold          set
