But every implementation of Tutorial D has to address them somehow. Fortunately, arithmetic is orthogonal to relational theory and there is no need for us to be bothered by Rel's behaviour here. 0 are all equivalent, in spite of the fact that INTEGER and REAL (SQL's counterpart of Tutorial D's RATIONAL) are also distinct types in SQL. 5. Now try the following compound statement: begin ; VAR x integer init(0) ; x := x + 1 ; output x ; end ; Why do we have to write output x ; in full here, instead of just x?
When an operator is invoked, an argument must be substituted for each of its defined parameters. The term argument strictly refers to the value or variable denoted by the argument expression but is often used to refer to the expression itself. x Parameter subject to update versus parameter not subject to update: The first parameter of “:=” (the one representing the target) is subject to update, so a variable must be substituted for it when “:=” is invoked (and an expression denoting a variable must appear in the corresponding position in the expression denoting the invocation); the second parameter of “:=” and both parameters of + are not subject to update, so values must be substituted for them in invocations (and expressions denoting values must appear in the corresponding positions in the expressions denoting the invocations).
