Register Variables

How exactly do register variables work in C? When should they be used? K&R touches upon them briefly but moves right along. Is there any source in which I can read about them in depth?

So you're the illiterate jew that wrote..

So then a variable definition is a declaration that allocates storage for the variable. Unless you can declare an extern variable within a function, then every variable declaration within a function is necessarily a definition. I've never seen an extern variable declared within a function, but it seems like it could actually be a good idea for using global variables from other files within the scope of a single function.

A few things you hourly bitch...

a)For the most part, a variable in C is a named object. There are several trivial cases where this you can have an unnamed one.

b)It's possible to have a definition not allocate storage. Can you cite some example you illiterate jew? I bet you can't.

c)I'm still not granting you the first interview.

d)Go scrub another toilet you mental midget.
