I'm not sure if I understand what you mean. If a user starts a session and writes a value to a variable, how does the computer know whether the value should be temporary or permanent after the user ends the session?
- jfengel 8y agoSame as with variable scope in the language. Every variable is persistent until deleted or released. Such a language would need to manifest transactions (or some other behavior for consistency), but much of it would be handled with existing language concepts.
