    221215These languages have different syntax and semantics from C, and do not interoperate directly with C, largely because of garbage collection.

    618612A \Index{pointer}/\Index{reference} is a generalization of a variable name, i.e., a mutable address that can point to more than one memory location during its lifetime.
    619613(Similarly, an integer variable can contain multiple integer literals during its lifetime versus an integer constant representing a single literal during its lifetime and may not occupy storage as the literal is embedded directly into instructions.)
    620 Hence, a pointer occupies memory to store its current address, and the pointer's value is loaded by dereferencing, \eg:

    675669Except for auto-dereferencing by the compiler, this reference example is the same as the previous pointer example.
    676670Hence, a reference behaves like the variable name for the current variable it is pointing-to.
    677 The simplest way to understand a reference is to imagine the compiler inserting a dereference operator before the reference variable for each reference qualifier in a declaration, \eg:
     671The simplest way to understand a reference is to imagine the compiler inserting a dereference operator before the reference variable for each reference qualifier in a declaration, e.g.:
    678672\begin{lstlisting}
    679673r2 = ((r1 + r2) * (r3 - r1)) / (r3 - 15);
    … …

     679When a reference operation appears beside a dereference operation, e.g., ©&*©, they cancel out.\footnote{
    686680The unary ©&© operator yields the address of its operand.

    728722\end{lstlisting}
    729 Hence, for type ©& const©, there is no pointer assignment, so ©&rc = &x© is disallowed, and \emph{the address value cannot be ©0© unless an arbitrary pointer is assigned to the reference}, \eg:

    732726\end{lstlisting}
    733727Otherwise, the compiler is managing the addresses for type ©& const© not the programmer, and by a programming discipline of only using references with references, address errors can be prevented.
    734 Finally, the position of the ©const© qualifier \emph{after} the pointer/reference qualifier causes confuse for C programmers.
    735 The ©const© qualifier cannot be moved before the pointer/reference qualifier for C style-declarations;
    736 \CFA-style declarations attempt to address this issue:

    753729\Index{Initialization} is different than \Index{assignment} because initialization occurs on the empty (uninitialized) storage on an object, while assignment occurs on possibly initialized storage of an object.

    13441320The C subscript list has the form ©[i][j]...© and not ©[i, j, ...]©.
    1345 Therefore, there is no syntactic way for a routine returning multiple values to specify the different subscript values, \eg ©f[g()]© always means a single subscript value because there is only one set of brackets.

    18061783Eliminating default fall-through has the greatest potential for affecting existing code.
    1807 However, even if fall-through is removed, most ©switch© statements would continue to work because of the explicit transfers already present at the end of each ©case© clause, the common placement of the ©default© clause at the end of the case list, and the most common use of fall-through, i.e., a list of ©case© clauses executing common code, \eg:
