Placement of variable declarations in CPlacement of variable declarations in CPosted Oct 28, 2007 14:26 UTC (Sun) by RobSeace (subscriber, #4435)In reply to: Placement of variable declarations in C by giraffedata Parent article: A potential competitor for GCC: pcc
Yeah, what nix said... I think you're just playing semantic games, here... Just because you don't want to call something a "branch" or a "loop", doesn't mean it doesn't fit the definition of what I (and most other programmers I've encountered) use those words to mean... Perhaps they mean something radically different in your world, I don't know... Got a link to any supporting documentation on your alternate meanings?? And, BTW, I happen to hold a degree in CS, so I'm fairly familiar with the various forms of programming (though, it has been many years now), as well as languages such as LISP (which is functional programming, BTW, and DOES have what *I* would call both loops and branches)... I just never encountered anyone who had your strange notions about structured programming, and the supposed complete absense of "loops" and "branches", before... *shrug*

Placement of variable declarations in C Posted Oct 28, 2007 19:04 UTC (Sun) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Well, it's more accurate to say that Lisp *can* be functional. You have to avoid most forms of `set'/`setf', though, and it's sort of tricky compared to the mixed functional/declarative approach generally adopted.
