This section introduces the basic elements of the CLI, and how to construct expressions based on these elements.
The debugger groups expressions into two classes:
C source language expressions, used in assembled or compiled source mode
assembly language expressions, used in assembly source or disassembly mode.
Most valid C expressions are also valid in the debugger (see Using expressions and statements). However, if you are an assembly language user, you do not have to know how to program in C to use the debugger. Simple C expressions are the same as standard algebraic expressions.
