  2. Uninitialized variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninitialized_variable

    In C, variables with static storage duration that are not initialized explicitly are initialized to zero (or null, for pointers). [ 3 ] Not only are uninitialized variables a frequent cause of bugs, but this kind of bug is particularly serious because it may not be reproducible: for instance, a variable may remain uninitialized only in some ...

  3. Initialization (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization_(programming)

    In C++, a constructor of a class/struct can have an initializer list within the definition but prior to the constructor body. It is important to note that when you use an initialization list, the values are not assigned to the variable. They are initialized. In the below example, 0 is initialized into re and im. Example:

  4. Lazy initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_initialization

    This example is in Smalltalk, of a typical accessor method to return the value of a variable using lazy initialization. height ^ height ifNil: [ height := 2.0 ] . The 'non-lazy' alternative is to use an initialization method that is run when the object is created and then use a simpler accessor method to fetch the value.

  5. Loop unrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_unrolling

    The following example demonstrates dynamic loop unrolling for a simple program written in C. Unlike the assembler example above, pointer/index arithmetic is still generated by the compiler in this example because a variable (i) is still used to address the array element.

  6. External variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_variable

    In B, all variables must be declared, as one of auto, extrn, or implicitly as function arguments. [1] An external variable is defined outside functions, has a lifetime of the whole program execution, and introduced to function by the mean of extrn declaration. Using the following code in the tutorial as an example: [1]

  7. Constant (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_(computer...

    There are several main ways to express a data value that doesn't change during program execution that are consistent across a wide variety of programming languages. One very basic way is by simply writing a literal number, character, or string into the program code, which is straightforward in C, C++, and similar languages.

  8. Data segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_segment

    In computing, a data segment (often denoted .data) is a portion of an object file or the corresponding address space of a program that contains initialized static variables, that is, global variables and static local variables. The size of this segment is determined by the size of the values in the program's source code, and does not change at ...

  9. Static variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_variable

    In computer programming, a static variable is a variable that has been allocated "statically", meaning that its lifetime (or "extent") is the entire run of the program. This is in contrast to shorter-lived automatic variables, whose storage is stack allocated and deallocated on the call stack; and in contrast to dynamically allocated objects, whose storage is allocated and deallocated in heap ...
