    two variables in different :ref:`api_guide_Block_en` could have the same name.

    There are many kinds of variables. Each kind of them has its own attributes
    and usages. Please refer to the `framework.proto <https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/blob/develop/paddle/fluid/framework/framework.proto>`_ for details.
