Most procedure and function
headers include a parameter list. For example, in the header
function
Power(X: Real; Y: Integer): Real;
the parameter list is (X: Real; Y:
Integer).
A parameter list is a sequence of
parameter declarations separated by semicolons and enclosed in parentheses.
Each declaration is a comma-delimited series of parameter names, followed in
most cases by a colon and a type identifier, and in some cases by the = symbol
and a default value. Parameter names
must be valid identifiers. Any declaration can be preceded by one of the
reserved words var, const, and out (see Parameter semantics). Examples:
(X, Y: Real)
(var S: string; X:
Integer)
(HWnd: Integer; Text, Caption: PChar;
Flags: Integer)
(const P; I: Integer)
The parameter list specifies the
number, order, and type of parameters that must be passed to the routine when
it is called. If a routine does not take any parameters, omit the identifier
list and the parentheses in its declaration:
procedure
UpdateRecords;
begin
...
end;
Within the procedure or function
body, the parameter names (X and Y in the first example above) can be used as
local variables. Do not redeclare the parameter names in the local declarations
section of the procedure or function body.

译文
大多数过程和函数首部都包括一个参数列表(parameter list),例如,在函数首部
function
Power(X: Real; Y: Integer): Real;
中,参数列表是(X: Real; Y:
Integer)。
参数列表是一个参数声明序列,声明之间以分号隔开,参数列表由圆括号封装。每个声明是一个参数名序列,参数名之间以逗号隔开,大多数情况下跟随一个冒号(:)和一个类型标识符,某些情况下还跟随一个等号(=)和一个缺省值(见缺省参数)。参数名必需是有效标识符。所有声明之前都可以含有保留字var、const、out之一(见参数语义)。例如:
(X, Y: Real)
(var S: string; X:
Integer)
(HWnd: Integer; Text, Caption: PChar;
Flags: Integer)
(const P; I: Integer)
当例程被调用时,参数列表指定了必需传递给例程的参数的个数、顺序以及类型。如果一个例程不接受任何参数,那么在例程声明中可以忽略标识符列表和圆括号:
procedure
UpdateRecords;
begin
...
end;
在过程或函数主体中,参数名(上面例子中的X和Y)可以被作为局部变量使用。在过程或函数主体的局部声明中不要对参数名进行再声明(事实上编译器也不允许这样)。
