  2. C data types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_data_types

    Various rules in the C standard make unsigned char the basic type used for arrays suitable to store arbitrary non-bit-field objects: its lack of padding bits and trap representations, the definition of object representation, [7] and the possibility of aliasing. [12] The actual size and behavior of floating-point types also vary by implementation.

  3. C++ Standard Library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++_Standard_Library

    The C++ Standard Library is based upon conventions introduced by the Standard Template Library (STL), and has been influenced by research in generic programming and developers of the STL such as Alexander Stepanov and Meng Lee. [4] [5] Although the C++ Standard Library and the STL share many features, neither is a strict superset of the other.

  4. Character (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_(computing)

    A string of seven characters. In computing and telecommunications, a character is a unit of information that roughly corresponds to a grapheme, grapheme-like unit, or symbol, such as in an alphabet or syllabary in the written form of a natural language. [1] Examples of characters include letters, numerical digits, common punctuation marks

    Large object may refer to: Binary large object , a collection of binary data stored as a single entity Character large object , a collection of character data in a database management system

  6. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointer_(computer_programming)

    C++ also supports another form of reference, quite different from a pointer, called simply a reference or reference type. Pointer arithmetic , that is, the ability to modify a pointer's target address with arithmetic operations (as well as magnitude comparisons), is restricted by the language standard to remain within the bounds of a single ...

  7. C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++

    C++ destructors for local variables are called at the end of the object lifetime, allowing a discipline for automatic resource management termed RAII, which is widely used in C++. Member variables are created when the parent object is created.

  8. Wide character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_character

    A wide character refers to the size of the datatype in memory. It does not state how each value in a character set is defined. Those values are instead defined using character sets, with UCS and Unicode simply being two common character sets that encode more characters than an 8-bit wide numeric value (255 total) would allow.

  9. sizeof - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sizeof

    sizeof is a unary operator in the programming languages C and C++.It generates the storage size of an expression or a data type, measured in the number of char-sized units.. Consequently, the construct sizeof (char) is guaranteed to be
