  2. Assertion (software development) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assertion_(software...

    If the (BOOLEAN CONDITION) part evaluates to false then the above code will not compile because the compiler will not allow two case labels with the same constant. The boolean expression must be a compile-time constant value, for example (sizeof(int)==4) would be a valid expression in that context. This construct does not work at file scope (i ...

  3. Sanity check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanity_check

    This return value is actually often itself the result of a sanity check. For example, if the function attempted to open, write to, and close a file, a sanity check may be used to ensure that it did not fail on any of these actions—which is a sanity check often ignored by programmers. [7]

  4. Conditional (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_(computer...

    For example: If stock=0 Then message= order new stock Else message= there is stock End If. In the example code above, the part represented by (Boolean condition) constitutes a conditional expression, having intrinsic value (e.g., it may be substituted by either of the values True or False) but having no intrinsic meaning

  5. Bounds checking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounds_checking

    A range check is a check to make sure a number is within a certain range; for example, to ensure that a value about to be assigned to a 16-bit integer is within the capacity of a 16-bit integer (i.e. checking against wrap-around).

  6. "Hello, World!" program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/"Hello,_World!"_program

    It serves as a sanity check and a simple example of installing a software package. For developers, it provides an example of creating a .deb package, either traditionally or using debhelper, and the version of hello used, GNU Hello, serves as an example of writing a GNU program. [15] Variations of the "Hello, World!"

  7. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    first checks whether x is less than 5, which it is, so then the {loop body} is entered, where the printf function is run and x is incremented by 1. After completing all the statements in the loop body, the condition, (x < 5), is checked again, and the loop is executed again, this process repeating until the variable x has the value 5.

  8. Grammar checker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammar_checker

    A grammar checker, in computing terms, is a program, or part of a program, that attempts to verify written text for grammatical correctness. Grammar checkers are most often implemented as a feature of a larger program, such as a word processor , but are also available as a stand-alone application that can be activated from within programs that ...

  9. Parsing - Wikipedia

    For example, in Python the following is syntactically valid code: x = 1 print ( x ) The following code, however, is syntactically valid in terms of the context-free grammar, yielding a syntax tree with the same structure as the previous, but violates the semantic rule requiring variables to be initialized before use:
