  2. Bounds-checking elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounds-checking_elimination

    Bounds-checking elimination could eliminate the second check if the compiler or runtime can determine that neither the array size nor the index could change between the two array operations. Another example occurs when a programmer loops over the elements of the array, and the loop condition guarantees that the index is within the bounds of the ...

  3. C string handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_string_handling

    Part of the C standard since C11, [17] in <uchar.h>, a type capable of holding 32 bits even if wchar_t is another size. If the macro __STDC_UTF_32__ is defined as 1, the type is used for UTF-32 on that system. This is always the case in C23. [15] C++ does not define such a macro, but the type is always used for UTF-32 in that language. [16 ...

  4. C syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_syntax

    A snippet of C code which prints "Hello, World!". The syntax of the C programming language is the set of rules governing writing of software in C. It is designed to allow for programs that are extremely terse, have a close relationship with the resulting object code, and yet provide relatively high-level data abstraction.

  5. Undefined behavior - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undefined_behavior

    For C and C++, the compiler is allowed to give a compile-time diagnostic in these cases, but is not required to: the implementation will be considered correct whatever it does in such cases, analogous to don't-care terms in digital logic. It is the responsibility of the programmer to write code that never invokes undefined behavior, although ...

  6. Addressing mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addressing_mode

    Example 1: Within a subroutine, a programmer may define a string as a local constant or a static variable. The address of the string is stored in the literal address in the instruction. The offset—which character of the string to use on this iteration of a loop—is stored in the index register.

  7. Use-define chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use-define_chain

    Contrariwise, at the point marked "2", the use-def chain for x indicates that its current value must have come from line C. Since the value of the x in block 2 does not depend on any definitions in block 1 or earlier, x might as well be a different variable there; practically speaking, it is a different variable — call it x2.

  8. C standard library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_standard_library

    The C standard library, sometimes referred to as libc, [1] is the standard library for the C programming language, as specified in the ISO C standard. [2] Starting from the original ANSI C standard, it was developed at the same time as the C POSIX library, which is a superset of it. [3]

  9. Comparison of Pascal and C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Pascal_and_C

    C lacks built-in string or array assignment, so the string is not being transferred to p, but rather p is being made to point to the constant string in memory. In Pascal, unlike C, the string's first character element is at index 1 and not 0 (leading it to be length-prefixed). This is because Pascal stores the length of the string at the 0th ...
