Is if(TRUE) a good idea in C?

Question

In the C programming language, it is my understanding that variables can only be defined at the beginning of a code block, and the variable will have the scope of the block it w

Answer 1

As far as I know you can create a scope without if.

Use just the braces like this:

{
    int x;

}

And I recommend against

if (TRUE)

since it hinders readibility.
