34<p>The <code>omit</code> keyword denotes the missing value. The <code>omit</code> can only be assigned to optional fields of <code>record</code> and <code>set</code> types to indicate that an
35optional field is not present.

56Example:
57<p><code> module m {<br>
58type record R { integer field1 optional, boolean field2 }<br>
59type set S { integer field1 optional, boolean field2 }<br>
60<br>
61control {<br>
62var R r1 := { omit, false };<br>
63var S s1 := { field1 := omit, field2 := true };<br>
64var S s2;<br>
65<br>
66s2.field1 := omit;<br>
67s2.field2 := false;<br>
68}<br>
69} </code>
70<p>Both type S and R contain an optional field1 element. Variable r1 is initialized using the value list notation; the optional field is omitted. Variable s1 is initialized using the value
71assignment notation; the optional field1 is not present. Finally, variable s2 is not initialized. Its fields are set via normal assignments through field references (i.e. using the dot notation);
72field1 is absent, again.
