C does not allow var declaration between two 
statements, you have to put them all at the beginning 
of the function. C++ allows this feature.

If you name your file with .c extension then gcc will
try to compile it using C rules. If you want your file 
to be compiled as C++ you have to name it with a .cpp 
or .cc extension.
