I have been studying Java for a few months and am now starting to learn C.
I am a little confused, I was under the impression that passing an object by reference and passing a pointer to that object were the same thing: I thought the difference was that...

Example:

Pass by reference Caller just not.
This can be used to provide optional arguments.
Passing by pointer Caller has to take the address -> not transparent A 0 value can be provided to mean nothing .

Here is what I understand so far: PASS BY VALUE Passing by value means a copy of an argument is passed. Changes to that copy do not change the original.
PASS BY REFERENCE Passing by reference means a reference to the original is passed. changes to the...

They both mean 'pass by reference'.
Some parameter scenarios might be:
ref int numYou would never combine ref and out on 1 parameter.
Understand the dynamics of passing either way.

Quick one; am I right in thinking that passing a string to a method 'as a CONST' involves more overhead than passing a string as a 'VAR'? The compiler will get Delphi to make a copy of the string and then pass the copy, if the string parameter is declared...

It avoids creating a copy (default, by value) or even passing a pointer (var, by reference(x2.x); end; var x: TFoo; begin Foo(x, x)....
Const is already the most efficient way of passing parameters to a function.
Bigger performance impact.

You could, however....
If the default is null , then maybe you could pass in 0 as the value for @newBoots
Strictly, no, there's no real facility to accomplish this.
Is to use a default value that you would never pass in as an argument.

I have two questions, actually. But they are very closely related.
Suppose I have a simple struct like this:
public struct TradePrice { public float Price; public int Quantity; public TradePrice(float price, int quantity) { Price = price; Quantity = quantity...

Passing structs instead of individual values may lead to better maintainability because if you ever describes what it represents? Does it represent some clear concept in your business domain?

If you want to save a pointer, then yes.
If you have some code later likeIf you pass by reference or pointer then no copy is made.

Hi All,
Can anyone help me out understanding the various parameter passing modes in Scheme? I know Scheme implements parameter passing by value. But how about other modes?
Is there any good documentation for parameter passing in Scheme?

Instead, some Scheme implementations like PLT with (unbox <some-box>....
