0.I read that ANSI C rules for variable declaration says that one must declare the variables at the beginning of any scope block.
C99 onwards we are allowed to declare variables as & how required.
1.NOW, my doubt is what happens in the actual "practical/real-world" codes that are written in industry.
Do everyone *strictly* follow the ANSI C rules & declare the variables at the beginning of the scope ?
2.Also , why are we still following that old rule ? Is it so that old codes of 70s can be used with new codes ?
3.There must be some standard that all of us need to follow , so what are they ?
This point is very crucial for free & open-source projects , where people all around world write codes.
Can any one redirect me to some links/tutorials for the same ?
