~A~<Variable Usage~>
The style guide requires that a program must not have variables
which are never used.
Furthermore programs must not rely upon default initialisation.
Hence each variable must be assigned to before it is used.
You decide to suggest to your manager that the programmers
should use lint before they release their programs.
Inspite of that you try to let your analysis tool check these
requirements, and compare the results with those of lint.
For the program
~O~<vars.in~>~{~-
{ int a, b, c, d, e;
int f;
int a;
a = read (x);
b = a + c;
c = a * c;
e = d + a;
print (e);
}
~}
your analysis tool shall produce messages like
~O~<vars.out~>~{~-
"vars.in", line 5:13 ERROR: variable is not defined
"vars.in", line 1:7 ERROR: variable is multiply defined
"vars.in", line 2:7 WARNING: variable is never used
"vars.in", line 3:7 ERROR: variable is multiply defined
"vars.in", line 5:13 WARNING: variable is used before set
"vars.in", line 6:11 WARNING: variable is used before set
"vars.in", line 7:11 WARNING: variable is used before set
"vars.in", line 8:7 WARNING: variable is used before set

The following questions may help to focus your attention on the
significant aspects of this problem:
1. Decompose the whole task into subproblems: a name analysis
task and several single tasks which need to compute a property
of variables each. Solve the tasks separately.
2. How do you solve the name analysis task?
3. For each property subtask answer the following questions:
What are the property values?
In which contexts is the property to be set?
In which contexts is the property to be read?
What is the sequencing relation between setting and reading
the property.
4. Discuss the write before read subproblem for the
statement ~{c = a * c;~}.

~B~<Further Questions~>
1. Do you know a library module role that supports the check
for undefind variables?
2. Do you know a library module that supports the check
for multiple definitions?
3. How did you solve the problem that a variable use in the
right-hand side of an assignment has to be considered
before the left-hand side? Do you see alternative solutions?
