Sep 11, 2009 · Oct 7, 2014 at 13:52. 1. Declaration is for the compiler to accept a name (to tell the compiler that the name is legal, the name is introduced with intention not a typo). Definition is where a name and its content is associated. The definition is used by the linker to link a name reference to the content of the name.
Oct 3, 2009 · @AndersonGreen As I said there's no such thing as a variable declaration in Python. You would create a multidimensional list by taking an empty list and putting other lists inside it or, if the dimensions of the list are known at write-time, you could just write it as a literal like this: my_2x2_list = [[a, b], [c, d]].
Apr 28, 2014 · A declaration is a definition unless it declares a function without specifying the function’s body (8.4), it contains the extern specifier (7.1.1) or a linkage-specification25 (7.5) and neither an initializer nor a function- body, it declares a static data member in a class definition (9.2, 9.4), it is a class name declaration (9.1), it is an opaque-enum-declaration (7.2), it is a template ...
Jul 12, 2011 · 12. You can create an empty two dimensional list by nesting two or more square bracing or third bracket ([], separated by comma) with a square bracing, just like below: Matrix = [[], []] Now suppose you want to append 1 to Matrix[0][0] then you type: Matrix[0].append(1) Now, type Matrix and hit Enter.
11. Declaration is not to declare "value" to a variable; it's to declare the type of the variable. Assignment is simply the storing of a value to a variable. Initialization is the assignment of a value to a variable at the time of declaration. These definitions also applies to fields. int i; // simple declaration. i = 42 // simple assignment.
Forward declaration is a declaration preceeding an actual definition, usually for the purpose of being able to reference the declared type when the definition is not available. Of course, not everything may be done with the declared-not-defined structure, but in certain context it is possible to use it.
The condition in an if or while statement can be either an expression, or a single variable declaration (with initialisation). Your second and third examples are neither valid expressions, nor valid declarations, since a declaration can't form part of an expression.
Correct. The concept of a 'declaration' as a soft/forward definition is needed in C and C++ because of their compilation model. C++ (conceptually) uses single pass compilation, C# is multi-pass. Consider: class Bar; // declaration: needed in C++, illegal and unnecessary in C#. class Foo // start of definition, counts as a declaration of Foo.
Mar 6, 2013 · When you use a #define, the compiler is free to choose a more appropriate type which can hold your very large number. This can cause it to behave correctly, and give you the answer you expect. In general, however, I would recommend being explicit about the data type, and choosing a data type that will represent the number correctly without requiring compiler and platform specific behavior, if ...
Other compilation units normally just include the declaration so default value expressions placed in the definition can be used only in the defining compilation unit itself (and after the definition, i.e. after the compiler sees the default value expressions). The most useful place is in the declaration (.h) so that all users will see it.
