Message: [QUOTE="Jack Klein, post: 1677952"] No, you are incorrect. It was the original 1989 ANSI standard that made lvalues arrays and introduced the concept that some lvalues were non-modifiable. That had to be so because the 1989 ANSI standard also introduced the const qualifier to the language, and any object defined as const was certainly an lvalue, but certainly not modifiable. -- Jack Klein Home: [URL]http://JK-Technology.Com[/URL] FAQs for comp.lang.c [URL]http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/C-faq/top.html[/URL] comp.lang.c++ [URL]http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/[/URL] alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++ ftp://snurse-l.org/pub/acllc-c++/faq [/QUOTE]
