    00006 B.1.17 Compound Statements
    00007
    00008 Suppose we need to do more than one thing depending on the value of a predicate. If we need to execute
    00009 multiple statements that depend upon a common predicate, we can group them together into a list of
    00010 statements. For example, {m = n; n = r;} is a list of statements, also called a compound state-
    00011 ment. Consider steps 2 and 3 of Euclid’s method (see section 9.2.2), which can be expressed:
    00012 *****************************************************************************/
    00013
    00014 Integer m, n = 1, r = 1;
    00015
    00016 If (r == 0)
    00017   Halt(n);
    00018 Else {
    00019   m = n;
    00020   n = r;
    00021 }
    00022
    00023 /*****************************************************************************
    00024 If r is not equal to 0, first m is assigned the value of n, and then n is assigned the value of r. We
    00025 express this in Musimat by making these two steps into a compound statement.
    00026
    00027 Any legal statement can appear within a compound statement, including other compound state-
    00028 ments. This means we can nest compound statements inside each other.
