(...) As of C99 that is no longer true, though still current usage to support older compilers. Jürgen (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I'd say go for it, it is still quite uncommon for C programmers to put their variable declarations elsewhere. Jürgen (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: NQC ideas
 
(...) Hi John, C is more restrictive than C++ when it comes to variable declaration. In C, you can only declare variables at the beginning of a block before any executable. Well, lets see..... any variables declared outside a function are by (...) (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  NQC ideas
 
NQC is definitely sticking with its C heritage with respect to semi-colons. Elisabeth mentioned fancier math and IP features. Neither of those seem possible when you consider that the compiler has to generate code that runs on the LEGO firmware (...) (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  RE: Ideas for NQC
 
(...) I could not agree more with Kevin. Adding a feature, such as adding in more intricate math functions, or add in tcp/ip socket support, etc. is more fruitful than making the language syntax more like others just because someone is not used to (...)

  Re: Ideas for NQC
 
(...) I object to this proposed change. Lack of knowledge of a language's syntax does not justify changing the syntax. (...) [SNIP] Kevin (21 years ago, 9-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Well, it won't be easy. It doesn't help that I've been working long hours at my day job either. But I'll do my best. (...) [...] (...) In C & C++ it is not optional to use a semi-colon at the end of a line. The same goes for Java, C#, and (...) (21 years ago, 9-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) ...a bit like NQP (Not Quite Pascal) :D ? (...) That would have to be called NQB (Not Quite BASIC) ;) Ok, now, seriously, this could be usefull for lazzy typists like me, but remember that C is case sensitive, so, how could BricxCC decide (...)

  Ideas for NQC
 
Hi John, Now that Dave Baum has given you the control under NQC, how will you manage to work both on NQC and on BricxCC??? I recomend the following changes: For NQC, something that you can add is optional use of semi-colon. It's a pain when I do a (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Catching up on LUGNET after a busy couple of days, I notice that John is moving the BricxCC page to: (URL) (See (URL) for more details.) John, the LEGO website also has a link to your AOL page here: (URL) so you might want to contact them so (...) (21 years ago, 12-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
