5.25 Mixed Declarations and Code

ISO C99 and ISO C++ allow declarations and code to be freely mixed within compound statements. As an extension, GCC also allows this in C89 mode. For example, you could do:

 
int i;
...
i++;
int j = i + 2;

Each identifier is visible from where it is declared until the end of the enclosing block.
