Exception handling is available in PowerBuilder versions 8.0 and above. TRY // Normal execution path CATCH (ExampleException ee) // deal with the ExampleException FINALLY // This optional section is executed upon termination of any of the try or catch blocks above END TRY
The Go developers believe that the try-catch-finally idiom obfuscates control flow, [59] and introduced the exception-like panic / recover mechanism. [ 60 ] recover () differs from catch in that it can only be called from within a defer code block in a function, so the handler can only do clean-up and change the function's return values, and ...
The TRS-80 computer manufactured by Tandy / Radio Shack contains an 8-bit character set. [1] It is partially derived from ASCII , and shares the code points from 32 - 95 on the standard model. Code points 96 - 127 are supported on models that have been fitted with a lower-case upgrade.
For example, the widely used encodings based on ISO 8859 can only represent, at most, 256 unique characters as one 8-bit byte each. Documents are rarely, in practice, ever allowed to use more than one encoding internally, so the onus is usually on the markup language to provide a means for document authors to express unencodable characters in ...
The VBScript language is modeled on classic Visual Basic. [13] Notable features include: A "procedure" is the main construct in VBScript for separating code into smaller modules. VBScript distinguishes between a function, which can return a result in an assignment statement, and a subroutine, which cannot.
When the data word is divided into 8-bit blocks, as in the example above, two 8-bit sums result and are combined into a 16-bit Fletcher checksum. Usually, the second sum will be multiplied by 256 and added to the simple checksum, effectively stacking the sums side-by-side in a 16-bit word with the simple checksum at the least significant end.
HTML and XML provide ways to reference Unicode characters when the characters themselves either cannot or should not be used. A numeric character reference refers to a character by its Universal Character Set/Unicode code point, and a character entity reference refers to a character by a predefined name. A numeric character reference uses the ...
An 8-bit register can store 2 8 different values. The range of integer values that can be stored in 8 bits depends on the integer representation used. With the two most common representations, the range is 0 through 255 (2 8 − 1) for representation as an binary number, and −128 (−1 × 2 7) through 127 (2 7 − 1) for representation as two's complement.
