I once saw such a language in which they both used 'the customer' and
'a customer'. 'a customer' was used then they were declaring the
variable (such as binding ig in a function parameter) and 'the
customer' was used when they were using the variable. Ant they also
had similar notation if you needed two of them: 'another customer' and
'the other customer'.
