The compound statement is the main building block of procedures. Statements in a compound statement are executed left to right, unless the flow of control is changed with a goto statement. The compound statement allows declaring local variables and exception handlers. See 'Scope Rules' above for a description of the scope of declarations.

Labeled statements (goto targets) and declarations can only occur within a compound statement.
