I've also added the above code. However, I'm still getting the same error.

Does that make sense to you guys????

void inc() {
  static iCpt = 0;
  iCpt++;
  printf("%d\n", iCpt);
}
 
void main(void) {
  for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {

Static sounds like a CONSTANT.

YourFunction()
{
  static int st = 0;   // only when the function is first called
  st++;                // every time when the function is called
}
