  2. Double dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_dispatch

    The problem is that, while virtual functions are dispatched dynamically in C++, function overloading is done statically. The problem described above can be resolved by simulating double dispatch, for example by using a visitor pattern. Suppose the existing code is extended so that both SpaceShip and ApolloSpacecraft are given the function

  3. Indirection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indirection

    (6) It is easier to move a problem around (for example, by moving the problem to a different part of the overall network architecture) than it is to solve it. (6a) (corollary). It is always possible to add another level of indirection. Object-oriented programming makes use of indirection extensively, a simple example being dynamic dispatch.

  4. Multiple inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_inheritance

    The "diamond problem" (sometimes referred to as the "Deadly Diamond of Death" [6]) is an ambiguity that arises when two classes B and C inherit from A, and class D inherits from both B and C. If there is a method in A that B and C have overridden , and D does not override it, then which version of the method does D inherit: that of B, or that of C?

  5. Double factorial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_factorial

    These are counted by the double factorial 15 = (6 − 1)‼. In mathematics, the double factorial of a number n, denoted by n‼, is the product of all the positive integers up to n that have the same parity (odd or even) as n. [1] That is,

  6. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-precision_floating...

    Double-precision floating-point format (sometimes called FP64 or float64) is a floating-point number format, usually occupying 64 bits in computer memory; it represents a wide range of numeric values by using a floating radix point. Double precision may be chosen when the range or precision of single precision would be insufficient.

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  8. Double-checked locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-checked_locking

    In software engineering, double-checked locking (also known as "double-checked locking optimization" [1]) is a software design pattern used to reduce the overhead of acquiring a lock by testing the locking criterion (the "lock hint") before acquiring the lock. Locking occurs only if the locking criterion check indicates that locking is required.

  9. Dual linear program - Wikipedia

    For the dual problem assume that y unit prices for each of these means of production (inputs) are set by a planning board. The planning board's job is to minimize the total cost of procuring the set amounts of inputs while providing the farmer with a floor on the unit price of each of his crops (outputs), S 1 for wheat and S 2 for barley.
