  2. Global variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_variable

    Variables declared with file scope are visible between their declaration and the end of the compilation unit (.c file) (unless shadowed by a like-named object in a nearer scope, such as a local variable); and they implicitly have external linkage and are thus visible to not only the .c file or compilation unit containing their declarations but ...

  3. MATLAB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB

    Variables are defined using the assignment operator, =. MATLAB is a weakly typed programming language because types are implicitly converted. [35] It is an inferred typed language because variables can be assigned without declaring their type, except if they are to be treated as symbolic objects, [36] and that their type can change.

  4. 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]

  5. Declaration (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer programming, a declaration is a language construct specifying identifier properties: it declares a word's (identifier's) meaning. [1] Declarations are most commonly used for functions, variables, constants, and classes, but can also be used for other entities such as enumerations and type definitions. [1]

  6. Constant (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    A third way is by declaring and defining a variable as being "constant". A global variable or static variable can be declared (or a symbol defined in assembly) with a keyword qualifier such as const, constant, or final, meaning that its value will be set at compile time and should not be changeable at runtime. Compilers generally put static ...

  7. Assignment (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    The variable is assigned the computed value, replacing the prior value of that variable. Example: Assuming that a is a numeric variable, the assignment a := 2*a means that the content of the variable a is doubled after the execution of the statement.

  8. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    That way, a nested call can modify its local variables without affecting any of the suspended calls variables. Recursion allows direct implementation of functionality defined by mathematical induction and recursive divide and conquer algorithms. Here is an example of a recursive function in C/C++ to find Fibonacci numbers:

  9. Enumerated type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enumerated_type

    For example, the four suits in a deck of playing cards may be four enumerators named Club, Diamond, Heart, and Spade, belonging to an enumerated type named suit.If a variable V is declared having suit as its data type, one can assign any of those four values to it.
