const定义

来自http://duramecho.com/ComputerInformation/WhyHowCppConst.html，节选了一下

定义中添加const，按目前的理解，应该说是为了更快的发现代码中的问题（编译时就会发现对const变量的修改），似乎没有非如此定义不可的必要，不过必要这个词又应该是如何定义的。。

比较重要的一句话：

Basically ‘const’ applies to whatever is on its immediate left (other than if there is nothing there in which case it applies to whatever is its immediate right).

const优先向左结合的，所以类似

<code> int * const Constant3;<code />

这样的定义，那么这个指针的值不能改变，而指向的数据可以改变。

这里想到了关于变量的定义，找一个变量的基类型优先右结合，比如

int *a(void){}

那么a是一个函数而非函数指针，或许说得不严谨吧。。

打个岔，文章里看到一句话正是我想说的

The addition of an ‘&’ to the parameter name in C++ (which was a very confusing choice of symbol because an ‘&’ in front of variables elsewhere in C generates pointers!) causes the actual variable itself, rather than a copy, to be used as the parameter in the subroutine and therefore can be written to thereby passing data back out the subroutine.

类中：

class Class1
{ void Method1();
  int MemberVariable1;}

Of course one sometimes needs to combine some of these different uses of ‘const’ which can get confusing as in

const int*const Method3(const int*const&)const;

where the 5 uses ‘const’ respectively mean that the variable pointed to by the returned pointer & the returned pointer itself won’t be alterable and that the method does not alter the variable pointed to by the given pointer, the given pointer itself & the object of which it is a method!.

That's all, 最后两段没太看懂，语法太复杂了。。
