Guide line for the naming of user variables: Always start the variable name with 
an uper case letter. It prevent name conflicts with reserved words and 
predefined variables names. Those always start with a lower case leter.

Here, "x" is a predefined variable. You can't define your variables using that 
name. Use "X" instead. Even if "i" is not reserved, it's beter to use "I" as a 
variable name.

Reserved single leters variable names: t, u, v, x, y and z
