I had my lab in a really stupid mandatory freshmen-level "intro to computer science" class this morning; the only thing that throws me from time to time is I haven't touched C++ since I was 12. However, even the teacher was a bit confused about a bug that was cropping up. Maybe someone...

C has the following types of statements: compound statement ( { ... } ); expression statement (expression + ; ); null statement...
