问题 I see that in the answer of In Javascript, why write "var QueryStringToHash = function QueryStringToHash (query) { ... }"? which is doing something like var foo = function foo(param) { ... } in that particular case, why do that instead of just using function foo(param) { ... } ? What is the advantage or motivation of doing that? 回答1: In shortly, if you take the following code, the first example creates a function, named foo , the second example creates an anonymous function and assign it to

问题 6.7.6 Declarators says Each declarator declares one identifier , and asserts that when an operand of the same form as the declarator appears in an expression, it designates a function or object with the scope, storage duration, and type indicated by the declaration specifiers. And also states about syntax of parameter: parameter-declaration: declaration-specifiers declarator declaration-specifiers abstract-declarator(opt) For the given function prototype int f( int a[], int n); int a[]

Local function declaration inside namespace

问题 In such a situation namespace n { void f() { void another_function(); } } Should the function another_function be defined inside the namespace n or outside? VS 2012 (with the November CTP) says it should be outside, and GCC 4.7.2 on the Mac says it should be inside. If I do the wrong one, I get undefined symbol errors from the linkers. I generally trust GCC to be more compliant to the standard, but this is C++ and you can never be sure. 回答1: C++11 3.5 (as well as C++03) 7 When a block scope

What is C local function declaration mechanism?

问题 Local function declaration seems to be permitted in gcc, and I found a discussion on this: Is there any use for local function declarations? However, my question is: is it allowed by ISO C standard? If it is, how to explain the following phenomenon which makes it puzzling: int main(void) { int f(void); f(); } void g(void) { /* g has no idea about f. It seems that the decl is limited within its * scope */ f(); } int f(void) {} while int main(void) { int f(void); f(); } void f(void); /* error

Why can't a typedef of a function be used to define a function?

问题 From § 8.3.5.11 of ISO/IEC 14882:2011(E): A typedef of function type may be used to declare a function but shall not be used to define a function The standard goes on to give this example: typedef void F(); F fv; // OK: equivalent to void fv(); F fv { } // ill-formed void fv() { } // OK: definition of fv What motivates this rule? It seems to limit the potential expressive usefulness of function typedefs. 回答1: Though this question is about C++, but since C++ inherits typedef and function pointer

How to provide explicit type declarations for functions when using GHCi?

Inline function prototype vs regular declaration vs prototype

问题 What's the difference between inline function and then main like so: inline double cube(double side) { return side * side * side; } int main( ) { cube(5); } vs just declaring a function regularly like: double cube(double side) { return side * side * side; } int main( ) { cube(5); } vs function prototype? double cube(double); int main( ) { cube(5); } double cube(double side) { return side * side * side; } 回答1: An inline function can be defined in multiple translation units (cpp file + includes
