About Chuck Cosby
Expertise
I can answer questions about speech recognition and natural language understanding. I am particulary strong in knowedge based natural langauge techniques. I cannot answer questions about robotics, nueral nets, prolog, or vision recognition - just speech and natural language.

Experience
I have spent 25 years developing natural language software products. I have never developed speech systems, but I have developed sophisticated interfaces from natural language to speech. I have been working with speech recognition systems also for 25 years.

Artificial Intelligence - special words


Expert: Chuck Cosby - 4/18/2009

Question
Hi
my question is about the special words that we use in programming such as while,do.... in c
special words are divided into two majors 1.keywors 2.reserved words
i know that keywords is a word of a programming language that is special only in certain contexts
and a reserded word is a special word of a programming language that can not be used as a name.

but i can't understand the difference between the definition of them?
could you plz make it more clear for me?

Thanx
Bita

Answer
I don't think i can give you a better definition than what you already have.  I never even really thought about this.  to me both words more or less mean the same thing.  But then again, i am not a programming language expert, i use programming languages to create end results - i don't really care much about the arcane details of the language itself.  In fact, i don't even program anymore, i have people who work for me who program.  I design the programs and manage the process.
