Assertion (A): A compiler for a statically scoped language can resolve every name at compile time.
Reason (R): Visibility depends only on the nesting of blocks in the program text, which the compiler can see in full.

  • A.A is true but R is false
  • B.A is false but R is true
  • C.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • D.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

Answer: C

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism, and it explains why static scoping is universal. A dynamically scoped language would have to search a chain of bindings at run time, costing both speed and predictability.
