ENUMERATED(ENUM) DATATYPE in E-Text C PROGRAMMING ENUMERATED(ENUM) DATATYPE IN e-Text C PROGRAMMING B.Durga Anuja, Lecturer in Computer Applications Govt. Degree College (W), Srikalahasti Email. Id : [email protected] Enumerated Data Type(enum): The ANSI provides user defined data type which is called enumerated data type i.e., the programmer can create their own data type and define what values the variables of these data types can hold. • The enum in C is also known as the enumerated type. • It is a user-defined data type. • The use of enum in C makes the program easy to understand and maintain. • The enum is defined by using the enum keyword. Syntax for enum: enum flag {constant1,constant2,…constantN}; Name of the Enumeration Values for created Enumeration In the above syntax enum is a keyword to create the user defined data type and flag is a name of the data type that user creates and constant1..constantN are set possible values for that datatype. Example: I Eg1: enum gender{male,female,other}; Eg2: enum week{sunday,monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,saturday}; Here in example1 gender is a user defined data type with possible values male, female and other. This gender datatype variables can hold only these three values. Here in example2 week is a user defined data type with possible values sunday, monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday. This week datatype variables can hold only these seven values. 1 variable declaration: enum result{pass,fail}r1; enum result{pass,fail}; enum result r1; In the above variable declaration process the result is user defined datatype where data type creation and variable declaration done in single statement.The same process can be done in two statements by creating enum data type in online and variable declaration in other line. r1 is a variable of result data type where it can store two values either pass or fail. Storage in Memory: • Enum consists of integer values. • Whatever constant values created using enum will be saved as integer values. enum direction{north,south,east,west} north south east west • The default value of const1 is 0, const2 is 1, and so on. • We can also change the default value of the integer constants at the time of the declaration. enum gender{male=1,female=3,other=5}; male female other 2 When we assign value to the one constant in the set and left other without assigning any value then compiler automatically increments previous constant value by 1 and assign to the next constant. enum status{false=1,true}; . false true In the above example in status data type false is assigned to 1 and true is left. So compiler takes value of the false i.e 1 and increments it by 1 and assigns to true.so the value of constant true is 2. Rules to create user defined data type with enum • The values assigned to the enum names must be integral constant • it should not be of other types such string, float, etc. • All the enum names must be unique in their scope enum status{success, fail}; enum boolean{fail,pass}; • if we define two enum having same scope, then these two enums should have different enum names otherwise compiler will throw an error 3 Example Program: #include<stdio.h> #include<conio.h> void main() { enum day{sunday,monday,tuesday,thursday,friday,saturday}; enum day d1,d2,d3; clrscr(); d1=tuesday; printf("\nThe value d1 is:%d",d1); d2=friday; printf("\nThe value of d2 is:%d",d2); d3=d1; printf("\nThe value of d3 is:%d",d3); getch(); } Output: The value of d1 is:2 The value of d2 is:4 The value of d3 is:2 Reference Books/Web Links: [1] “Programming in C” by E Balagurusamy [2] “Introduction to C Programming” by Reema Thareja [3] “Let us C “ by Yashavanth Kanetkar [4] “C:The Complete Reference” by Herbert Schildt [5] https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/c-programming-language/ [6] https://codeforwin.org/ [7] https://www.cprogramming.com/ [8] https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cprogramming/index.htm [9] https://www.javatpoint.com/c-programming-language-tutorial [10] https://beginnersbook.com/ 4 .

  • 5. Data Types
    IEEE FOR THE FUNCTIONAL VERIFICATION LANGUAGE e Std 1647-2011 5. Data types The e language has a number of predefined data types, including the integer and Boolean scalar types common to most programming languages. In addition, new scalar data types (enumerated types) that are appropriate for programming, modeling hardware, and interfacing with hardware simulators can be created. The e language also provides a powerful mechanism for defining OO hierarchical data structures (structs) and ordered collections of elements of the same type (lists). The following subclauses provide a basic explanation of e data types. 5.1 e data types Most e expressions have an explicit data type, as follows: — Scalar types — Scalar subtypes — Enumerated scalar types — Casting of enumerated types in comparisons — Struct types — Struct subtypes — Referencing fields in when constructs — List types — The set type — The string type — The real type — The external_pointer type — The “untyped” pseudo type Certain expressions, such as HDL objects, have no explicit data type. See 5.2 for information on how these expressions are handled. 5.1.1 Scalar types Scalar types in e are one of the following: numeric, Boolean, or enumerated. Table 17 shows the predefined numeric and Boolean types. Both signed and unsigned integers can be of any size and, thus, of any range. See 5.1.2 for information on how to specify the size and range of a scalar field or variable explicitly. See also Clause 4. 5.1.2 Scalar subtypes A scalar subtype can be named and created by using a scalar modifier to specify the range or bit width of a scalar type.

  • Chapter 5: Substitutes for C Constructs
    CHAPTER 5 Substitutes for C Constructs THE Java programming language shares many similarities with the C program- ming language, but several C constructs have been omitted. In most cases, it’s obvi- ous why a C construct was omitted and how to make do without it. This chapter suggests replacements for several omitted C constructs whose replacements are not so obvious. The common thread that connects the items in this chapter is that all of the omitted constructs are data-oriented rather than object-oriented. The Java pro- gramming language provides a powerful type system, and the suggested replace- ments take full advantage of that type system to deliver a higher quality abstraction than the C constructs they replace. Even if you choose to skip this chapter, it’s probably worth reading Item 21, which discusses the typesafe enum pattern, a replacement for C’s enum construct. This pattern is not widely known at the time of this writing, and it has several advan- tages over the methods currently in common use. Item 19: Replace structures with classes The C struct construct was omitted from the Java programming language because a class does everything a structure does and more. A structure merely groups multi- ple data fields into a single object; a class associates operations with the resulting object and allows the data fields to be hidden from users of the object. In other words, a class can encapsulate its data into an object that is accessed solely by its methods, allowing the implementor the freedom to change the representation over time (Item 12).

  • Data Types Enumerated Types
    CS 1044 Intro Programming in C++ Fall 2002 August 22, 2002 Data Types 9. Types 1 data type: a collection of values and the definition of one or more operations that can be performed on those values C++ includes a variety of built-in or base data types: short, int, long, float, double, char, etc. The values are ordered and atomic. C++ supports several mechanisms for aggregate data types: arrays, structures, classes. These allow complex combinations of other types as single entities. C++ also supports other mechanisms that allow programmers to define their own custom data types: enum types and typedefs. Computer Science Dept Va Tech August, 2002 Intro Programming in C++ ©1995-2002 Barnette ND & McQuain WD Enumerated Types 9. Types 2 An enumerated type is defined by giving a name for the type and then giving a list of labels, which are the only values that a variable of that type is allowed to have. Enumerated types allow the creation of specialized types that support the use of meaningful labels within a program. They promote code readability with very little overhead in memory or runtime cost. enum Month {JAN, FEB, MAR, APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG, SEP, OCT, NOV, DEC}; enum Season {WINTER, SPRING, SUMMER, FALL}; enum Hemisphere {NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST}; Month Mon; Season Period; Hemisphere Region; ... if (Mon == JAN && Region == NORTH) Period = WINTER; An enumerated type is allowed to have up to 256 values and a variable of an enumerated type will occupy one byte of memory. It is an error for the same label to be listed as a value for two different enumerated types.

During operation, the system re- ceives source code for the computer program. The source code contains a declaration for an enumerated type. This declaration specifies a fixed number of enu- meration constants that comprise the enumerated type. Next, the system defines the enumerated type using a class defined within an object-oriented programming language. The class includes a constant for each enu- meration constant specified in the declaration. If the declaration additionally contains one or more method declarations, these methods are present on the defined class.

    C++ DATA TYPES http://www.tuto rialspo int.co m/cplusplus/cpp_data_types.htm Copyrig ht © tutorialspoint.com While doing prog ramming in any prog ramming lang uag e, you need to use various variables to store various information. Variables are nothing but reserved memory locations to store values. This means that when you create a variable you reserve some space in memory. You may like to store information of various data types like character, wide character, integ er, floating point, double floating point, boolean etc. Based on the data type of a variable, the operating system allocates memory and decides what can be stored in the reserved memory. Primitive Built-in Types: C++ offer the prog rammer a rich assortment of built-in as well as user defined data types. Following table lists down seven basic C++ data types: Type Keyword Boolean bool Character char Integ er int Floating point float Double floating point double Valueless void Wide character wchar_t Several of the basic types can be modified using one or more of these type modifiers: sig ned unsig ned short long The following table shows the variable type, how much memory it takes to store the value in memory, and what is maximum and minimum vaue which can be stored in such type of variables.

Edwards (Church as opposed to Turing). The value cannot be changed by evaluating an expression Spring 2003 or by sharing it between different parts of the program. “Programming without variables” Columbia University No references to global data; there is no global data.

There are no side-effects, unlike in referentially opaque Original version by Prof. Simon Parsons languages. It’s a cult: once you catch the functional bug, you never escape. The Joy of Pascal Strange behavior Variables program example(output) This prints 5 then 4. At the heart of the “problem” is fact that the global data var flag: boolean; flag affects the value of f. Odd since you expect function f(n:int): int In particular begin f (1) + f (2) = f (2) + f (1) if flag then f := n flag := not flag else f := 2*n; gives the offending behavior flag := not flag Mathematical functions only depend on their inputs end They have no memory Eliminating assignments eliminates such problems. begin In functional languages, variables not names for storage. flag := true; What does this print? Instead, they’re names that refer to particular values. writeln(f(1) + f(2)); writeln(f(2) + f(1)); Think of them as not very variables.

  • The Building Blocks: Data Types, Literals, and Variables
    Quigley.book Page 31 Thursday, May 22, 2003 3:19 PM chapter 3 The Building Blocks: Data Types, Literals, and Variables 3.1 Data Types A program can do many things, including calculations, sorting names, preparing phone lists, displaying images, validating forms, ad infinitum. But in order to do anything, the program works with the data that is given to it. Data types specify what kind of data, such as numbers and characters, can be stored and manipulated within a program. Java- Script supports a number of fundamental data types. These types can be broken down into two categories, primitive data types and composite data types. 3.1.1 Primitive Data Types Primitive data types are the simplest building blocks of a program. They are types that can be assigned a single literal value such as the number 5.7, or a string of characters such as "hello". JavaScript supports three core or basic data types: • numeric • string • Boolean In addition to the three core data types, there are two other special types that consist of a single value: • null • undefined Numeric Literals. JavaScript supports both integers and floating-point numbers. Integers are whole numbers and do not contain a decimal point; e.g., 123 and –6. Inte- gers can be expressed in decimal (base 10), octal (base 8), and hexadecimal (base 16), and are either positive or negative values. See Example 3.1. 31 Quigley.book Page 32 Thursday, May 22, 2003 3:19 PM 32 Chapter 3 • The Building Blocks: Data Types, Literals, and Variables Floating-point numbers are fractional numbers such as 123.56 or –2.5.
