Have you ever considered opening a manual? I'm sure there will be a crystal clear explanation.

And since you posted in the Interview Questions section of the forum, you might want to qualify your question by telling us, at least, which computer language you are referring to in your post?

Whichever language - Prino's response is relevant. The manuals are freely available/accessible on-line. read first, then, if you have a query: research, ask colleagues, and, finally, ask on a forum.

For interview questions you should really state what your answer to the question was.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

Nic
