Unless that's something added in later C standards, I'm pretty sure C
doesn't have that (as Stefan stated, the case below is simply that an `if`
or `else` can have a single statement (`{statements ... }`) being a block
statement).
Julia does support what you are talking about, but only (AFAIK) for the
`for` statement (which I do find useful, but I think it might be too
confusing for `if`, `else`, etc.
