Examples of Constant Lists

3. This example initializes a STRING array with a repetition constant list:

STRING b[0:79] := 80 * [" "];

4. This example initializes an INT(32) array with a mixed constant list containing

values of the same data type. The diagram shows how the compiler allocates

storage for the variable and the constant list that initializes the variable:

%20D

C[4]

VST0311.vsd

"a"

"b"

"c"

"Y""X"

" "

"Z"

"d"

C[0]

C[1]

C[2]

C[3]

INT(32) c[0:4] :=

["abcd", 1D, 3D, "XYZ", %20D];
