Comment : | 131 II 5 p 5-10 5.4.2.s Initializes every variable upon declaration where permitted. "Initializes every variable upon declaration where permitted, and where subsequent assignment is not guaranteed by program flow." Initializing a variable that is guaranteed to have an assigned value by program flow causes a warning to be generated by modern compilers and source code analysis tools. The standard should not mandate coding practices that cause compiler warnings to be generated. [Borland C++ Builder V. 6] [PCLint V. 7.5]
