In computer programming, 'scope' refers to the region of a program where a defined variable or function can be accessed. It essentially determines the visibility and lifetime of a variable or function. Common types of scope include global scope (accessible throughout the program), local scope (accessible only within the block where it's defined), and function scope (accessible within the function where it's defined). Understanding scope is crucial for writing clean, maintainable, and bug-free code by preventing naming conflicts and controlling data access.
