什么是 C 中的空语句?

来自 msdn 页面:

空语句"是缺少表达式的表达式语句.当语言的语法需要语句但不需要表达式求值时，它很有用.它由一个分号组成.

The "null statement" is an expression statement with the expression missing. It is useful when the syntax of the language calls for a statement but no expression evaluation. It consists of a semicolon.

空语句通常用作迭代语句中的占位符或用作在复合语句或函数末尾放置标签的语句.

Null statements are commonly used as placeholders in iteration statements or as statements on which to place labels at the end of compound statements or functions.
