Identifiers , which consist of variable names and other user-defined symbols, may be of any length. Upper and lower case are distinct. Identifiers must start with a letter and then be followed by letters, digits or underscores. The following reserved words have special meaning in phix and may not be used as identifiers: 

    and             or              not             xor
    break           continue        exit            fallthru
    case            default                         fallthrough
    constant        enum            include         iff             
    catch           try                             iif*
    do              while           switch          public
    forward         global          export          private
    for             by              to              end             
    if              then            elsif           else
    function        procedure       type            return
