Subject: Re: statement expressions and extended asm bug?

The semantics are not well defined, or at least not uniquely
defined, if you like that term better.


I prefer the terms determistic and non-deterministic. You can have
a program whose result is entirely well defined, but non-determinstic.
THat's not a problematical concept at all.


Agreed.  But I was talking about the _semantics_ of a program, not
about the program itself.  I'd hate to see a program with
non-deterministic _semantics_ ;-)
