. Next: Unix Interaction Up: Interactive environment Previous: Leading Spaces Index . During normal data processing, the user will have to create named variables to hold spectra etc. These must conform to the normal python syntax, specifically they cannot contain ``special'' characters such as $ etc and cannot start with a number (but can contain numbers). Variable (and function) names are case sensitive. Malte Marquarding 2007-08-16

... This chapter discusses values that JavaScript recognizes and describes the fundamental building blocks of JavaScript expressions: variables and literals. ... So, for example, you could define a variable as follows: . var answer = 42 And later, you could assign the same variable a string value, for example, . ... These are fixed values, not variables, that you literally provide in your script. ... A string literal is zero or more characters enclosed in double ( " ) or single ( ' ) quotation marks. ...

... One of these factors is how the client application uses VDPAU; i.e. the number of surfaces allocated for buffering, order of operations, etc. ... At a bare minimum, the application must allocate one video surface for each reference frame that the stream can use (2 for MPEG or VC-1, a variable stream-dependent number for H.264) plus one surface for the picture currently being decoded. However, if this minimum number of surfaces is used, performance may be poor. ... Performance Levels . ...
