Can C# have statement in condition

Question

How can i use sth like this:
if (int x = SomeMethodReturnsInt() != 1)
{
//play with x
}
instead of
int x = SomeMethodReturnsInt();
if (x != 1) { }
Is it possible?

Answer 1

It is possible to have a statement in a condition.

It is not allowed to declare a new variabele in a if statement.
