Errors: ISO scoping, obsolete binding??

So I've finally learned enough to do the first code completion challenge, but when I try to compile and run it, I get a couple errors that I don't understand:

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
      using namespace std;
      int main()
{
  int array[8];
  for(int x=0; x<8; x++)
  cin>>array[x];
  for(x=0; x<8; x++)
  cout<<array[x];
  return 0;
}

---

Line 8 name lookup of 'x' changed for new ISO 'for' scoping
Line 6 using obsolete binding at 'x'

Can somebody help me out here? Thanks -

You problem is that x is declared in the first for statement and it is no longer in scope when you reach the second for statement. The solution is to declare another variable for use with the second for statement or declare a variable outside both for statments and reset it to zero in both.

Earlier variables declared inside for loop were not use to die after the scope of for loop ended therefore we were able to use that variable .....but now according to new ISO standard....variable declared inside for loop die after the scope ends...and we can only use it if we declare it again.

Thanks, guys; now I understand.

Funny, that's the official solution to the challenge yet it contains this error!

There's always more to learn ....
