I think it is a good idea to have this:

for( int i = 0; i != N; ++i)


rather than this:

int i;

for( i = 0;, i != N; ++i )


that way, i is localized. It is a very good idea if i exists primarily for
for loop. It will not pollute the the other namespaces.


Also, IIRC, const in C99, makes a compile time constant. That's good
thing too. At least, I don't have to use enum for array size :P
