This will result in a compilation error because the local variable is not in the correct scope for the conditional statement to use it. Be sure to declare any conditional variables outside of the do while loop. ```cpp int main() { - do { - // This will not compile because the counter is in the scope of the do, whereas the while conditional is outside. - int counter = 10; - } while (counter < 10); - return 0; + do { + // This will not compile because the counter is in the scope of the do, whereas the while conditional is outside. + int counter = 10; + } while (counter < 10); + return 0; } ```
