For this you need dynamic scope.Do you mean something like the procedure `foo' call here?(define radix (make-parameter 10))(define (foo)(radix))(parameterize((radix 8)) (foo)) But the (foo) call is still bounded by (radix 8), hence the result isstill 8 ?
In this case foo sees the right radix variable, which is bound to a parameter, due to lexical scoping. But inside the parameterize block, that very same parameter will return a different value, acting like a dynamically bound variable.
