  2. Operator-precedence parser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator-precedence_parser

    In computer science, an operator-precedence parser is a bottom-up parser that interprets an operator-precedence grammar.For example, most calculators use operator-precedence parsers to convert from the human-readable infix notation relying on order of operations to a format that is optimized for evaluation such as Reverse Polish notation (RPN).

  3. Luhn mod N algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_mod_N_algorithm

    The Luhn mod N algorithm is an extension to the Luhn algorithm (also known as mod 10 algorithm) that allows it to work with sequences of values in any even-numbered base. This can be useful when a check digit is required to validate an identification string composed of letters, a combination of letters and digits or any arbitrary set of N ...

  4. Three-way comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-way_comparison

    In C, the functions strcmp and memcmp perform a three-way comparison between strings and memory buffers, respectively. They return a negative number when the first argument is lexicographically smaller than the second, zero when the arguments are equal, and a positive number otherwise.

    */ /* This implementation does not implement composite functions, functions with a variable number of arguments, or unary operators. */ while there are tokens to be read: read a token if the token is: - a number: put it into the output queue - a function: push it onto the operator stack - an operator o 1: while ( there is an operator o 2 at the ...

  6. Comparison sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_sort

    Sorting a set of unlabelled weights by weight using only a balance scale requires a comparison sort algorithm. A comparison sort is a type of sorting algorithm that only reads the list elements through a single abstract comparison operation (often a "less than or equal to" operator or a three-way comparison) that determines which of two elements should occur first in the final sorted list.

  7. Relational operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_operator

    Relational operators are also used in technical literature instead of words. Relational operators are usually written in infix notation, if supported by the programming language, which means that they appear between their operands (the two expressions being related). For example, an expression in Python will print the message if the x is less ...

  8. Exclusive or - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exclusive_or

    It tells whether there is an odd number of 1 bits (is true if and only if an odd number of the variables are true), which is equal to the parity bit returned by a parity function. In logical circuits, a simple adder can be made with an XOR gate to add the numbers, and a series of AND, OR and NOT gates to create the carry output.

  9. Circular shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_shift

    The number of distinct circular shifts of an n-tuple is , where k is a divisor of n, indicating the maximal number of repeats over all subpatterns. In computer programming , a bitwise rotation , also known as a circular shift, is a bitwise operation that shifts all bits of its operand.
