  • A Concurrent PASCAL Compiler for Minicomputers
    512 Appendix A DIFFERENCES BETWEEN UCSD'S PASCAL AND STANDARD PASCAL The PASCAL language used in this book contains most of the features described by K. Jensen and N. Wirth in PASCAL User Manual and Report, Springer Verlag, 1975. We refer to the PASCAL defined by Jensen and Wirth as "Standard" PASCAL, because of its widespread acceptance even though no international standard for the language has yet been established. The PASCAL used in this book has been implemented at University of California San Diego (UCSD) in a complete software system for use on a variety of small stand-alone microcomputers. This will be referred to as "UCSD PASCAL", which differs from the standard by a small number of omissions, a very small number of alterations, and several extensions. This appendix provides a very brief summary Of these differences. Only the PASCAL constructs used within this book will be mentioned herein. Documents are available from the author's group at UCSD describing UCSD PASCAL in detail. 1. CASE Statements Jensen & Wirth state that if there is no label equal to the value of the case statement selector, then the result of the case statement is undefined. UCSD PASCAL treats this situation by leaving the case statement normally with no action being taken. 2. Comments In UCSD PASCAL, a comment appears between the delimiting symbols "(*" and "*)". If the opening delimiter is followed immediately by a dollar sign, as in "(*$", then the remainder of the comment is treated as a directive to the compiler. The only compiler directive mentioned in this book is (*$G+*), which tells the compiler to allow the use of GOTO statements.

  • Concise Introduction to C++
    i i final3 2012/4/19 page 47 i i Chapter 2 Concise Introduction to C++ C++ seems to be most suitable for many practical applications. Indeed, C++ is sufficiently high-level to allow transparent object-oriented programming and efficient use of human resources, yet is also sufficiently low-level to have types, variables, pointers, arrays, and loops to allow efficient use of computer resources. In this chapter, we give a concise description of C++ and illustrate its power as an object-oriented programming language. In particular, we show how to construct and use abstract mathematical objects such as vectors and matrices. We also explain the notion of a template class, which can be filled with a concrete type later on in compilation time. We also discuss inheritance and illustrate its potential. 2.1 Objects As we have seen above, C is a language based on functions. Every command is also a function that returns a value that can be further used or abandoned, according to the wish of the programmer. Furthermore, programmers can write their own functions, which may also return variables of the type specified just before the function name. When the function is called, a temporary, unnamed variable is created to store the returned value until it has been used. C++, on the other hand, is an object-oriented programming language. In this kind of language, the major concern is not the functions that can be executed but rather the objects upon which they operate. Although C++ supports all the operations and features available in C, its point of view is different.

  • Java Terms/Concepts You Should Know from OOPDA Glossary Terms
    Java Terms/Concepts You Should Know from OOPDA A abstract class A class with the abstract reserved word in its header. Abstract classes are distinguished by the fact that you may not directly construct objects from them using the new operator. An abstract class may have zero or more abstract methods. abstract method A method with the abstract reserved word in its header. An abstract method has no method body. Methods defined in an interface are always abstract. The body of an abstract method must be defined in a sub class of an abstract class, or the body of a class implementing an interface. Abstract Windowing Toolkit The Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) provides a collection of classes that simplify the creation of applications with graphical user interfaces. These are to be found in the java.awt packages. Included are classes for windows, frames, buttons, menus, text areas, and so on. Related to the AWT classes are those for the Swing packages. aggregation A relationship in which an object contains one or more other subordinate objects as part of its state. The subordinate objects typically have no independent existence separate from their containing object. When the containing object has no further useful existence, neither do the subordinate objects. For instance, a gas station object might contain several pump objects. These pumps will only exist as long as the station does. Aggregation is also referred to as the has-a relationship, to distinguish it from the is-a relationship, which refers to inheritance. anonymous class A class created without a class name.

  • Software II: Principles of Programming Languages Control Statements
    Software II: Principles of Programming Languages Lecture 8 – Statement-Level Control Structures Control Statements: Evolution • FORTRAN I control statements were based directly on IBM 704 hardware • Much research and argument in the 1960s about the issue – One important result: It was proven that all algorithms represented by flowcharts can be coded with only two-way selection and pretest logical loops Control Structure • A control structure is a control statement and the statements whose execution it controls • Design question – Should a control structure have multiple entries? Selection Statements • A selection statement provides the means of choosing between two or more paths of execution • Two general categories: – Two-way selectors – Multiple-way selectors Two-Way Selection Statements • General form: if control_expression then clause else clause • Design Issues: – What is the form and type of the control expression? – How are the then and else clauses specified? – How should the meaning of nested selectors be specified? The Control Expression • If the then reserved word or some other syntactic marker is not used to introduce the then clause, the control expression is placed in parentheses • In C89, C99, Python, and C++, the control expression can be arithmetic • In most other languages, the control expression must be Boolean Clause Form • In many contemporary languages, the then and else clauses can be single statements or compound statements • In Perl, all clauses must be delimited by braces (they must be compound) • In Fortran

  • C Identifiers
    C++ Identifiers and Datatypes Each line of a C++ program contains a number of different words. The C++ compiler classifies these words into different categories: Reserved words: A reserved is a word that has a special meaning in C++. A reserved word always appears in lowercase and can only be used for the purpose, which has been defined to it by the C++ compiler. Examples of reserved words: int, void, return. The other types of words are identifiers that come into two varieties: standard and user defined. Standard Identifiers: Standard identifiers have a special meaning in C++. They are the names of operations defined in the standard C++ library. For example: cout is the name of an I/O operation. Unlike reserved words, standard identifiers can be redefined and used by the programmer for other purposes. However, this is NOT recommended. User-defined Identifiers: We choose our own identifiers (called user-defined identifier) to name memory cells that will hold data and program results and to name operations that we define. These names should follow specific rules to be acceptable to the C++ compiler. The rules that make up for a valid identifier are: An identifier must consist of only letters, digits and underscores. An identifier cannot begin with a digit A C++ reserved word cannot be used as an identifier. An identifier defined in the C++ standard library should not be redefined. Some C++ compilers only consider identifiers up to 31 characters. Uppercase and Lowercase: C++ is case sensitive. This means that it distinguishes between small and capital letters.

It is more focused on giving you a foundation in JavaScript programming than it is teaching you how to add JavaScript to webpages. Q: Is JavaScript case sensitive? Details if other :. Enabling JavaScript in your browser will allow you to experience all the features of our site. This was the case with early JavaScript, and was why, for many years, the performance of JavaScript was not so great. Many people who feel they are good at JS, will feel left behind after reading this book. A: Only by name. Who we are!? Showing Is it? It gets very overwhelming to go through the plethora of websites and ebooks and this book gives the programming noob real structure that can be followed and is very logically sequenced and organized. JavaScript is pass-by-value. A lot of the JavaScript instructional material I had been using earlier was fine at instructing me in the use of the language but did absolutely nothing to show me actually how to integrate it into client-side programming. Just keep learning. But if you wanna do all that you have to know JavaScript. Jun 01, Carl Klutzke rated it really liked it Shelves: recommended-non-fiction.
