... 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. ...

... Up: Science Software Applications . ... It has extensions for creating GUI (Tk) and object-oriented ([incr tcl]) applications. Several Tcl-based tools that may be used for astronomical and other scientific applications have been created and are discussed. One example is ptcl , which registers PGPLOT functions as Tcl commands, creating a powerful interactive plotting package. ... Both programs use the same C code, Tcl commands, and [incr tcl] classes; only the GUIs are different. ...

... 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 . ...
