  2. Variable (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_(computer_science)

    If a variable is only referenced by a single identifier, that identifier can simply be called the name of the variable; otherwise, we can speak of it as one of the names of the variable. For instance, in the previous example the identifier "total_count" is the name of the variable in question, and "r" is another name of the same variable.

  3. Local variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_variable

    Local variables may have a lexical or dynamic scope, though lexical (static) scoping is far more common.In lexical scoping (or lexical scope; also called static scoping or static scope), if a variable name's scope is a certain block, then its scope is the program text of the block definition: within that block's text, the variable name exists, and is bound to the variable's value, but outside ...

    Visual Basic (VB) before .NET, sometimes referred to as Classic Visual Basic, [1] [2] is a third-generation programming language, based on BASIC, and an integrated development environment (IDE), from Microsoft for Windows known for supporting rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, event-driven programming and both consumption and development of ...

  5. Leszynski naming convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leszynski_naming_convention

    Since the Leszynski naming convention is a special form of Hungarian notation the same general advantages also apply to the Leszynski convention.. The use of distinctive prefixes makes your database self-documenting; when you see frmSales in VBA code, you will know that it references a form, and when you see curSales you will know that it is a Currency variable.

  6. Value type and reference type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_type_and_reference_type

    Many languages have explicit pointers or references. Reference types differ from these in that the entities they refer to are always accessed via references; for example, whereas in C++ it's possible to have either a std:: string and a std:: string *, where the former is a mutable string and the latter is an explicit pointer to a mutable string (unless it's a null pointer), in Java it is only ...

  7. Variant type (COM) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variant_type_(COM)

    In Visual Basic (and Visual Basic for Applications) the Variant data type is a tagged union that can be used to represent any other data type (for example, integer, floating-point, single- and double-precision, object, etc.) except fixed-length string type. In Visual Basic, any variable not declared explicitly or the type of which is not ...

  8. Visual Basic (.NET) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Basic_(.NET)

    Visual Basic (VB), originally called Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET), is a multi-paradigm, object-oriented programming language, implemented on .NET, Mono, and the .NET Framework. Microsoft launched VB.NET in 2002 as the successor to its original Visual Basic language, the last version of which was Visual Basic 6.0.

  9. Value (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_(computer_science)

    When executed, the computer generates an integer value of 13, but because the program has not explicitly designated where in the computer this 13 is stored, the expression is a non l-value. On the other hand, if a C program declares a variable x and assigns the value of 13 to x, then the expression x has a value of 13 and is an l-value.
