  2. Powell's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powell's_method

    The new displacement vector (=) becomes a new search vector, and is added to the end of the search vector list. Meanwhile, the search vector which contributed most to the new direction, i.e. the one which was most successful (= ⁡ = | | ‖ ‖), is deleted from the search vector list.

  3. Object copying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_copying

    Many languages allow generic copying by one or either strategy, defining either one copy operation or separate shallow copy and deep copy operations. [1] Note that even shallower is to use a reference to the existing object A, in which case there is no new object, only a new reference. The terminology of shallow copy and deep copy dates to ...

  4. Copy elision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copy_elision

    In C++ computer programming, copy elision refers to a compiler optimization technique that eliminates unnecessary copying of objects.. The C++ language standard generally allows implementations to perform any optimization, provided the resulting program's observable behavior is the same as if, i.e. pretending, the program were executed exactly as mandated by the standard.

  5. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    But, unlike C++, Java doesn't create a default copy constructor if you don't write your own. Copy constructors define the actions performed by the compiler when copying class objects. A Copy constructor has one formal parameter that is the type of the class (the parameter may be a reference to an object). It is used to create a copy of an ...

  6. Initialization (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization_(programming)

    In C++, a constructor of a class/struct can have an initializer list within the definition but prior to the constructor body. It is important to note that when you use an initialization list, the values are not assigned to the variable. They are initialized. In the below example, 0 is initialized into re and im. Example:

  7. Double-checked locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-checked_locking

    There are valid forms of the pattern, including the use of the volatile keyword in Java and explicit memory barriers in C++. [4] The pattern is typically used to reduce locking overhead when implementing "lazy initialization" in a multi-threaded environment, especially as part of the Singleton pattern. Lazy initialization avoids initializing a ...

  8. Initialization vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization_vector

    In cryptography, an initialization vector (IV) or starting variable [1] is an input to a cryptographic primitive being used to provide the initial state. The IV is typically required to be random or pseudorandom , but sometimes an IV only needs to be unpredictable or unique.

  9. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In Python 3.x the range() function [28] returns a generator which computes elements of the list on demand. Elements are only generated when they are needed (e.g., when print(r[3]) is evaluated in the following example), so this is an example of lazy or deferred evaluation:
