Many Java programmers use block-delimiting braces in every if statement that they
write, even though the braces often surround just one statement. Such
programmers argue that the habitual use of braces reduces errors later on
when a program is modified. When braces are not used, it is easy to add a
second embedded statement to an if statement or else
statement, yet to forget that the modification requires the addition of
braces.
