Example of Scope Highlighting.

Scope Highlighting is a feature demonstrated in the IDE named "BlueJ." It is a very useful tool for refactoring. Scope Highlighting features different background colors for blocks of code, depending on what code is present.

Attached is an image of what Scope Highlighting looks like in BlueJ.
