Like this it looks less like a function call and a scope
instead; but still returns something from a scope as it's
return value. Although then it's almost a lambda function,
except without calling parameters. Mmm thoughts?
I tend to edit my text all over the place so sorry.
The first one {a = b; b = 7; 8;}; was suppose to have a note it
would error while assigning value of void return value.
Using the blocks/scope makes the book example look less like a
function call; But can still return something from a scope as
it's return value. Although then it's almost a lambda function

Most likely it wouldn't return anything, if you needed a return
you use a lambda instead. So:
a = b; b = 7;
int c = 8; //returns void so there is simply no block
or
int c = (){a = b; b = 7; return 8;};
