Combining the declaration and initialization was right, no doubt about
that. I was just nitpicking that the variable declaration could have
been done at the top, as it used to be. The same as you did, but not
separating the declaration from the rest as there are no instructions in
between.

My second thought was that you might be attempting to declare the
variable as near as possible to the "some" initialization, so you moved
it a little bit to get it closer :)

Either way, if you did that on purpose, then
