  2. Time-of-check to time-of-use - Wikipedia

    For the most general attack, the attacker must be scheduled for execution after each operation by the victim, also known as "single-stepping" the victim. In the case of BSD 4.3 mail utility and mktemp() , [ 2 ] the attacker can simply keep launching mail utility in one process, and keep guessing the temporary file names and keep making symlinks ...

  3. Scripting language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scripting_language

    In computing, a script is a relatively short and simple set of instructions that typically automate an otherwise manual process. The act of writing a script is called scripting. A scripting language or script language is a programming language that is used for scripting. [1]

  4. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    JIT causes a slight to noticeable delay in the initial execution of an application, due to the time taken to load and compile the input code. Sometimes this delay is called "startup time delay" or "warm-up time". In general, the more optimization JIT performs, the better the code it will generate, but the initial delay will also increase.

  5. One-liner program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-liner_program

    Several open-source scripts have been developed to facilitate the construction of Python one-liners. Scripts such as pyp or Pyline import commonly used modules and provide more human-readable variables in an attempt to make Python functionality more accessible on the command line. Here is a redo of the above example (printing the last field of ...

  6. Execution model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_model

    For example, both a 5 stage in-order pipeline and a large out of order CPU implement the same assembly language execution model. The execution model is the definition of the behavior, so all implementations, whether in-order or out-of-order or interpreted or JIT'd etc.. must all give the exact same result, and that result is defined by the ...

  7. Interpreter (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreter_(computing)

    Perl, Raku, Python, MATLAB, and Ruby are examples of the second, while UCSD Pascal is an example of the third type. Source programs are compiled ahead of time and stored as machine independent code, which is then linked at run-time and executed by an interpreter and/or compiler (for JIT systems).

  8. Compile time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compile_time

    Most compilers have at least the following compiler phases (which therefore occur at compile-time): syntax analysis, semantic analysis, and code generation.During optimization phases, constant expressions in the source code can also be evaluated at compile-time using compile-time execution, which reduces the constant expressions to a single value.

  9. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Pyston is a variant of the Python runtime that uses just-in-time compilation to speed up the execution of Python programs. [153] Cinder is a performance-oriented fork of CPython 3.8 that contains a number of optimizations, including bytecode inline caching, eager evaluation of coroutines, a method-at-a-time JIT, and an experimental bytecode ...
