if a: some_code1 if b: some_code2 If I accidentaly delete if b:, then some_code2 gets under the if a: which is not intended. With braces (or other delimiters): if(a) { some_code1; } if(b) { some_code2; } if I delete if(b) I get a syntax error about unmatched braces. IMO, the "right" way to handle braces in C is always to include them, even when they are not technically obligatory.
