    var x1 = 0; // A global variable, because it is not in any function let x2 = 0; // Also global, this time because it is not in any block function f {var z = 'foxes', r = 'birds'; // 2 local variables m = 'fish'; // global, because it wasn't declared anywhere before function child {var r = 'monkeys'; // This variable is local and does not affect the "birds" r of the parent function. z ...

  3. Switch statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement

    Switch expressions are introduced in Java SE 12, 19 March 2019, as a preview feature. Here a whole switch expression can be used to return a value. There is also a new form of case label, case L-> where the right-hand-side is a single expression. This also prevents fall through and requires that cases are exhaustive.

  4. Best, worst and average case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best,_worst_and_average_case

    A j are less than element A j+1, and half are greater. Therefore, the algorithm compares the (j + 1) th element to be inserted on the average with half the already sorted sub-list, so t j = j/2. Working out the resulting average-case running time yields a quadratic function of the input size, just like the worst-case running time.

  5. Loop-switch sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop-switch_sequence

    The most common example of the correct use of a switch within a loop is an inversion of control such as an event handler. In event handler loops, the sequence of events is not known at compile-time, so the repeated switch is both necessary and correct (see event-driven programming , event loop and event-driven finite state machine ).

  6. ECMAScript - Wikipedia

    It is best known as a JavaScript standard intended to ensure the interoperability of web pages across different web browsers. [2] It is standardized by Ecma International in the document ECMA-262 . ECMAScript is commonly used for client-side scripting on the World Wide Web , and it is increasingly being used for server-side applications and ...

  8. Context switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context_switch

    A task switch can be explicitly triggered with a CALL or JMP instruction targeted at a TSS descriptor in the global descriptor table. It can occur implicitly when an interrupt or exception is triggered if there's a task gate in the interrupt descriptor table (IDT). When a task switch occurs the CPU can automatically load the new state from the TSS.

    On Linux, they found that 8.7% to 9.6% of process executions failed to reach a steady state of performance, 16.7% to 17.9% entered a steady state of reduced performance after a warmup period, and 56.5% pairings of a specific virtual machine running a specific benchmark failed to consistently see a steady-state non-degradation of performance ...
