Oct 28, 2009 · Two special cases (1) static const is preferred within a class scope for class specific constants; (2) namespace or anonymous scope const is preferred over #define. I prefer Enums. Because it is hybrid of both. Doesn't occupy space unless you create a variable of it.
Jun 8, 2011 · In general, you can write a multi-line define using the line-continuation character, \. So e.g. #define MY_MACRO printf( \. "I like %d types of cheese\n", \. 5 \. ) But you cannot do that with your first example. You cannot split tokens like that; the << left-shift operator must always be written without any separating whitespace, otherwise it ...
Feb 12, 2021 · 2. #define directives create macro substitution, while constexpr variables are special type of variables. They literally have nothing in common beside the fact that before constexpr (or even const) variables were available, macros were sometimes used when currently constexpr variable can be used. But both have wide area of applications which ...
Dec 22, 2009 · 0. 1) #define's can be considered as tunable parameters that are independent of the datatypes, whereas constant's allow us to mention the datatype. 2) #define's replaces any code that follows that in the main program where ever they are referred to.
Mar 4, 2017 · For example: #define SCALE 1. ... scaled_x = x * SCALE; When SCALE is defined as 1 the compiler can eliminate the multiplication as it knows that x * 1 == x, but if SCALE is an (extern) const, it will need to generate code to fetch the value and perform the multiplication because the value will not be known until the linking stage. (extern is ...
Jun 29, 2010 · In fact, in C in most cases you should prefer #define, but in this specific case (state machine) enum is indeed a better approach. – AnT stands with Russia. Jun 28, 2010 at 17:57. duplicate of something as far as I can remember.Maybe the spec "for states in a state machine", changes it a bit, but there's no reason to consider a "state of ...

Jun 15, 2011 · Your description of underflow is completely wrong. Floating-point numbers consist of three fields: sign, significand (fraction), and exponent.
The difference is that #define is processed by the preprocessor doing what amounts to simple text replacement. Const values defined like this are not visible for the actual compiler, while a variable defined with the const modifier is an actual typed "variable" (well not really that variable). The disadvantage of #define is that is replaces ...
Apr 27, 2023 · 53. #define has many different applications, but your question seems to be about one specific application: defining named constants. In C++ there's rarely a reason to use #define to define named constants. #define is normally widely used in C code, since C language is significantly different from C++ when it comes to defining constants.
