Compound statements have the form
{ stmt… }
where stmt… is a list of statements, which can be themselves compound statements. Compound statements are primarily used to sequence instructions like:
{ do_a; do_b; do_c; }
A compound statement introduces a new lexical scope. Declarations in the compound statements are local to that statement.
Finally, compound statements can be empty: { }
