precedence (foldoc) | precedence
operator precedence
|
precedence lossage (foldoc) | precedence lossage
/pre's*-dens los'*j/ A misunderstanding of {operator
precedence} resulting in unintended grouping of arithmetic or
logical operators when coding an expression. Used
especially of mistakes in C code due to the nonintuitively
low precedence of "&", "|", "^", "". For example,
the following C expression, intended to test the least
significant bit of x,
x & 1 == 0
is parsed as
x & (1 == 0)
which is always zero (false).
Some lazy programmers ignore precedence and parenthesise
everything. Lisp fans enjoy pointing out that this can't
happen in *their* favourite language, which eschews precedence
entirely, requiring one to use explicit parentheses
everywhere.
[Jargon File]
(1994-12-16)
|
precedence lossage (jargon) | precedence lossage
/pre's@·dens los'@j/, n.
[C programmers] Coding error in an expression due to unexpected grouping of
arithmetic or logical operators by the compiler. Used esp. of certain
common coding errors in C due to the nonintuitively low precedence levels
of &, |, ^, (for this reason, experienced C programmers
deliberately forget the language's baroque precedence hierarchy and
parenthesize defensively). Can always be avoided by suitable use of
parentheses. LISP fans enjoy pointing out that this can't happen in their
favorite language, which eschews precedence entirely, requiring one to use
explicit parentheses everywhere. See aliasing bug, memory leak, {memory
smash}, smash the stack, fandango on core, overrun screw.

precedent (devil) | PRECEDENT, n. In Law, a previous decision, rule or practice which, in
the absence of a definite statute, has whatever force and authority a
Judge may choose to give it, thereby greatly simplifying his task of
doing as he pleases. As there are precedents for everything, he has
only to ignore those that make against his interest and accentuate
those in the line of his desire. Invention of the precedent elevates
the trial-at-law from the low estate of a fortuitous ordeal to the
noble attitude of a dirigible arbitrament.

PRECEDENCE (bouvier) | PRECEDENCE. The right of being first placed in a certain order, the first
rank being supposed the most honorable.
2. In this country no precedence is given by law to men.
3. Nations, in their intercourse with each other, do not admit any
precedence; hence in their treaties in one copy one is named first, and the
other in the other. In some cases of officers when one must of necessity act
as the chief, the oldest in commission will have precedence; as when the
president of a court is not present, the associate who has the oldest
commission will have a precedence; or if their. commissions bear the same
date, then the oldest man.
4. In. the, army and navy there is an order of precedence which
regulates the officers in their command.
|
PRECEDENTS (bouvier) | PRECEDENTS. the decision of courts of justice; when exactly in point with a
case before the court, they are generally held to have a binding authority,
as well to keep the scale of justice even and steady, as because the law in
that case has been solemnly declared and determined. 9 M. R. 355.
2. To render precedents valid, they must be founded in reason and
justice; Hob. 270; must have been made upon argument, and be the solemn
decision of the court; 4 Co. 94; and in order to give them binding effect,
there must be a current of decisions. Cro. Car. 528; Cro. Jac. 386; 8 Co.
163.
3. According to Lord Talbot, it is "much better to stick to the known
general rules, than to follow any one particular precedent, which may be
founded on reason, unknown to us." Cas. Temp. Talb. 26. Blackstone, 1 Com.
70, says, that a former decision is in general to be followed, unless
"manifestly absurd or unjust,", and, in the latter case, ii is declared,
when overruled, not that the former sentence was bad law, but that it was
not law.
4. Precedents can only be useful when they show that the case has been
decided upon a certain principle, and ought not to be binding when contrary
to such principle. If a precedent is to be followed because it is a
precedent, even when decided against an established rule of law, there can
be no possible correction of abuses, because the fact of, their existence
renders them above the law. It is always safe to rely upon principles. See
Principle; Rewon. de 16 Vin. Ab. 499; Wesk. on Inst. h.t.: 2 Swanst. 163; 2
Jac. & W. 31; 3 Ves. 527; 2 Atk. 559; 2 P. Wms. 258; 2 Bro. C. C. 86; 1 Ves.
jr. 11; and 2 Evans Poth. 377, where the author argues against the policy of
making precedents binding when contrary to reason. See also 1 Kent,
Comm.475-77; Liv.Syst. 104-5; Gresl. Ev. 300; 16 Johns. R. 402; 20 Johns. R.
