Point of declaration in C++

Question

Why isn\'t the output 101 while I assigned the previous x to the new x?

int x = 101;
{
    int x = x;
    std::cout &l         


        

Answer 1

There's another way to do it.

#include 
int x = 101;
int main()
{
  int x = ::x;
  std::cout << x << std::endl;
  std::cin.get();
}
