|
Limited dynamic length string?
|
Allow strings to have varying length up to declared and fixed maximum set by variable's definition.
|
|
|
Range?
|
Range is a combination of the range of fractions, and, the range of exponents.
|
|
|
Dynamic length strings?
|
Allow strings to have varying length with no maximum.
|
|
|
Primitive data types?
|
Data types that are not defined in terms of other types.
|
|
|
Array?
|
An Array is a homogeneous (same) aggregate (whole) of data elements in which an individual element is identified by its position in the aggregate.
|
|
|
Enumeration type?
|
An Enumeration Type is one in which all of the possible values, which become symbolic constants are enumerated in the definition.
|
|
|
Associative Array?
|
An unordered collection of data elements that are indexed by an equal number of values called KEYS.
|
|
|
Precision?
|
Precision is the accuracy of the fractional part of a value, measured as the number of bits.
|
|
|
Union?
|
A type that may store different type values at different times during program execution.
|
|
|
Ordinal Type?
|
An Ordinal Type is one in which the range of possible values can be easily associated with the set of positive integers.
|
|
|
Set Type
|
One whose variables can store unordered collections of distinct values from some ordinal type calle its base type.
|
|
|
Float?
|
Float type is the standard size, usually being stored in four bytes of memory.
|
|
|
Side Affect?
|
Occurs when the function changes either one of its parameters or a global variable.
|
|
|
Descriptor?
|
Descriptor is the collection of attributes of a variable. In all cases, it is used for type checking and by allocation and deallocation operations.
|
|
|
Casts?
|
Explicit type conversions
|
|
|
Stack-dynamic array?
|
A Stack-Dynamic Array is one in which the subscript ranges are dynamically bound and the storage allocation is dynamic (done during run-time).
|
|
|
Short circuit evaluation?
|
One in which the result is determined without evaluation all of the operands and/or operators.
|
|
|
Subrange Type?
|
A Subrange Type is a contiguous subsequence of an ordinal type.
|
|
|
Record?
|
A possibly heterogeneous aggregate of data elements in which the individual elements are identified by names.
|
|
|
Fixed Stack Dynamic Array?
|
A Fixed Stack-Dynamic Array is one in which the subscript ranges are statically bound, but the allocation is done at declaration elaboration time during execution.
|
|
|
Static length String?
|
The length can be static and specified in the declaration.
|
|
|
Heap-Dynamic Array?
|
A Heap-Dynamic Array is one in which the binding of subscript ranges and storage allocation is dynamic and can change any number of times during the array's lifetime.
|
|
|
Static array?
|
A Static Array is one in which the subscript ranges are statically bound and storage allocation is static (done before run time). The advantage of static arrayy is efficiency.
