==== Summary ====
  : //This document specifies the form and establishes the interpretation of programs written in the C [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:p:programlang|programming language]].//
  : //It specifies://
    - //the representation of C programs;//
    - //the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:s:syntax|syntax]] and constraints of the C language;//
    - //the semantic rules for interpreting C programs//
    - //the representation of input data to be processed by C programs;//
    - //the representation of output data produced by C programs;//
    - //the restrictions and limits imposed by a conforming implementation of C.//
  : //This document does not specify://
    - //the mechanism by which C programs are transformed for use by a data-processing system;//
    - //the mechanism by which C programs are invoked for use by a data-processing system;//
    - //the mechanism by which input data are transformed for use by a C program;//
    - //the mechanism by which output data are transformed after being produced by a C program;//
    - //the size or complexity of a program and its data that will exceed the capacity of any specific data-processing system or the capacity of a particular [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:p:processor|processor]];//
    - //all minimal requirements of a data-processing system that is capable of supporting a conforming implementation.//
