💻 Code

if (true) var x = 0;
console.log(x); //ok

for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) var j = i;
console.log(j) //error in compile: j is used before being assign, no error in runtime    

if (true) function f() {}
f()//no error in compile time, but error in runtime: In strict mode code, functions can only be declared at top level or inside a block 

🙁 Actual behavior

🙂 Expected behavior
