Which of course have been available since the year dot .. for example,
CORAL 66

  'begin'
     'integer' x;
     x := 2;
     y := x;  "y is external to the block .."
  'end'

or C

  {
    int x;
    x = 2;
    y = x;
  }

Personally I find myself using the C version very frequently, no doubt
if I still had to write CORAL I would do so there too .. spare me,
spare me
