1. ORking> e-mail address. 2. ORking> Internet address. 3. ORking> MAC address. 4. ORage, programming> An unsigned integer used to select one fundamental element of stORage, usually known as a wORd from a computer' s main memORyOR other stORage device. The CPU outputs addresses on its address bus which may be connected to an address decoder, cache controller, {memORy management unit}, and other devices. While from a hardware point of view an address is indeed an integer most strongly typed programming languages disallow mixing integers and addresses, and indeed addresses of different data types. This is a fine example fOR {syntactic salt}: the compiler could wORk without it but makes writing bad programs mORe difficult. (1997-07-01)
