/ot yes it is really unrelevant

It is if some criteria are valid, which are: The code fits in l1i cache, the data fits in l1d cache, the CPU frequency is locked, hyperthreading is disabled, all cores but one are disabled, the code uses no system calls, no branch is present in the code

Ah shut the fuck up

there are so many things that play a role

I didn't say that I don't want your answers but that particular answer was completely against what was asked

I KNOW RIGHT?

because 1) using those fancy words won't help a beginner 2) quoting the standard is not helpful either 3) you often confuse yourself in your claims when using those fancy words

the question was badly asked to begin with, thats right

@florianbAT interpreted the question like I did

he agreed with my answers and with my statement of vlwehlin being wrong

Its just that the compiler won't allow any writes to the int

what I want to know is how does the compiler compile this into instructions. as far as I know, literal integers are usually compiled to immediate values in the instructions. so it's not possible to get its address since the reference usually has a internal pointer to implement it.

no, integers aren't compiled into immediate values

@mmihov btw, I was right about this question 😉

only if you do this: functioncall (1);

What does const only being a compiler-safety have to do with any of this?

/warn off topic

so you want an answer - even if it is off topic?

well the answer is the answer I gave

normally, an int is compiled to some space in the binary (global variable) or on the stack (local variables)

not everything I say is a joke, but it's a joke whatever I say... but since I interpreted the question exactly as Maximilian did, it can't be wrong because everyone knows I'm never wrong..

i said "real machine"

It is what you do on real machine, but you rarely NEED real constant time

except it doesn't exist physically in that sense

except it doesn't exist physically in that sense

its kinda annoying

then mute this chat.
