  2. Join and meet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Join_and_meet

    In general, the join and meet of a subset of a partially ordered set need not exist. Join and meet are dual to one another with respect to order inversion. A partially ordered set in which all pairs have a join is a join-semilattice. Dually, a partially ordered set in which all pairs have a meet is a meet-semilattice.

  3. Comma-separated values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

    Comma-separated values (CSV) is a text file format that uses commas to separate values, and newlines to separate records. A CSV file stores tabular data (numbers and text) in plain text, where each line of the file typically represents one data record.

  4. Data-driven programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-driven_programming

    While data-driven design does prevent coupling of data and functionality, in some cases, data-driven programming has been argued to lead to bad object-oriented design, especially when dealing with more abstract data. This is because a purely data-driven object or entity is defined by the way it is represented. Any attempt to change the ...

  5. IPv6 packet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_packet

    Extension headers form a chain, using the Next Header fields. The Next Header field in the fixed header indicates the type of the first extension header; the Next Header field of the last extension header indicates the type of the upper-layer protocol header in the payload of the packet. All extension headers are a multiple of 8 octets in size ...

  6. Data structure alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

    Data structure alignment is the way data is arranged and accessed in computer memory. It consists of three separate but related issues: data alignment , data structure padding , and packing . The CPU in modern computer hardware performs reads and writes to memory most efficiently when the data is naturally aligned , which generally means that ...

  7. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointer_(computer_programming)

    By using pointers, you can access and modify data located in memory, pass data efficiently between functions, and create dynamic data structures like linked lists, trees, and graphs. In simpler terms, you can think of a pointer as an arrow that points to a specific spot in a computer's memory, allowing you to interact with the data stored at ...

  8. Cyclic redundancy check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check

    The CRC and associated polynomial typically have a name of the form CRC-n-XXX as in the table below. The simplest error-detection system, the parity bit, is in fact a 1-bit CRC: it uses the generator polynomial x + 1 (two terms), [5] and has the name CRC-1.

  9. Ethernet frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_frame

    The middle section of the frame is payload data including any headers for other protocols (for example, Internet Protocol) carried in the frame. The frame ends with a frame check sequence (FCS), which is a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check used to detect any in-transit corruption of data.
