Hi,

Is it possible to make an Assumption for the duration of a block of 
code? In other words, to say "In all of the following code, Assume[x>0]".

I appreciate that it is possible to use,

Assuming[x>0,

a whole lot of code

]

but that's quite awkward. Looking for a better alternative.

Thanks,

Sam
