To convert an integer to a character in Python, we can use the chr() method. The chr() is a Python built−in method that returns a character from an integer. The method takes an integer value and returns a unicode character corresponding to that integer. Syntax char(number) Parameter The method takes a single integer between the range of 0 to 1, 114, 111. Return Value A unicode character of the corresponding integer argument. And it will raies a ValueError if we pass an out of range value (i, e. range(0x110000)). Also it will raise TypeError − for a non−integer argument. ... Read More

volatile means two things − The value of the variable may change without any code of yours changing it. Therefore whenever the compiler reads the value of the variable, it may not assume that it is the same as the last time it was read, or that it is the same as the last value stored, but it must be read again. The act of storing a value to a volatile variable is a "side effect" which can be observed from the outside, so the compiler is not allowed to remove the act of storing a value; for example, ...

A Python list is a built-in, mutable datatype that stores multiple items or elements, separated by commas, within square brackets [ ]. The index of a list in Python starts from 0 up to length-1. We can retrieve/access elements at a particular index as follows - list_name[index] The given task is to write a Python program that prints the first character of each element in a list. But, before that, let's see some example scenarios: Scenario 1 For example, if our list contains string values, the output should be the first character of each string. Input: list = ... Read More

The type specifier for boolean in c++ is bool. You can use it as −bool myBoolean = true;

In a statically typed language such as C++, type specifiers are keywords that are used to define the type of data that given variables will hold. There are two types of type specifiers: built-in and user-defined type specifiers. Built-in Type SpecifiersThe built-in type specifiers are the basic and predefined data types provided by C++, such as int, float, char, signed, unsigned, short, long, etc. int myNumber = 42; In this given statement, the "int" is a type specifier, which states that the variable "myNumber" can only store integer values or numeric data types. There exist a lot of built-in type specifiers in C++ ... Read More

A type qualifier is a keyword in C++ that is applied to a variable, function, pointer, or parameter to add an extra feature or quality to it. For example, const int is a qualified type representing a constant integer, while int is an unqualified type, which is simply just an integer. Type qualifiers are a way of expressing additional information about a value through the type system, which ensures correctness in the use of the data. 1. The const Qualifier This is used to define a variable (or object) as constant, which means its value cannot be changed or modified ... Read More

In C++, character literals are the constant values, which are assigned to variables of the character data type. These values are represented by a character enclosed within single quotation marks. There are mainly five types of character literals: Narrow-character literals Wide-character literals. UTF-8 character literals UTF-16 character literals UTF-32 character literals Narrow-character Literals These character literals are of type char, which represents single-byte character. It stores characters from the ASCII table, which includes values ranging from 0 to ... Read More

Boolean Literals In C++, Boolean literals are the values, which are assigned to variables of the Boolean data type. A Boolean literal represents two values: true or false,  which are internally represented as 1 and 0 respectively. A Boolean literal occupies 1 byte (8 bits) of memory and is used for conditions, flags and logical checks. Declaring Boolean Variables  You can declare the boolean variables and assign the boolean literals to them by the given following. In this variable1 and variable2 is assigned with boolean literals true and false respectively in C++. bool variable1 = true; bool variable2 = false; ... Read More

In C++, tokens, identifiers, and keywords all are fundamental elements of a program. Tokens are the smallest units of code which are combine together to form complete program, where both keywords and identifiers are the types of tokens. The keywords are reserved words in the language, where each provides separate meanings to code and cannot be used as names by the programmer, whereas identifiers are names defined and used by programmers to represent variables, function or other user-defined elements. In this article, we will learn about all three in detail. Tokens in C++ A token is the smallest element of ... Read More

A token is the smallest element of a C++ program that is meaningful to the compiler. The C++ parser recognizes these kinds of tokens: identifiers, keywords, literals, operators, punctuators, and other separators. A stream of these tokens makes up a translation unit. Tokens are usually separated by white space.The parser recognizes keywords, identifiers, literals, operators, and punctuators. Preprocessing tokens(like #include, #define, #if_def, etc.) are used in the preprocessing phases to generate the token stream passed to the compiler. The preprocessing token categories are header names, identifiers, preprocessing numbers, character literals, string literals, etc. that do not match one of the ... Read More
