  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    In methods that have a return value of type Task<T>, methods declared with async must have a return statement of type assignable to T instead of Task<T>; the compiler wraps the value in the Task<T> generic. It is also possible to await methods that have a return type of Task or Task<T> that are declared without async.

    A timeout can also be specified on the wait using the wait_for() or wait_until() member functions to avoid indefinite blocking. If the future arose from a call to std::async then a blocking wait (without a timeout) may cause synchronous invocation of the function to compute the result on the waiting thread.

  4. Exponential backoff - Wikipedia

    The throughput-delay results of the two retransmission methods were compared by extensive simulations and found to be essentially the same. [ 8 ] Lam’s model provides mathematically rigorous answers to the stability questions of slotted ALOHA, as well as an efficient algorithm for computing the throughput-delay performance for any stable system.

    var x1 = 0; // A global variable, because it is not in any function let x2 = 0; // Also global, this time because it is not in any block function f {var z = 'foxes', r = 'birds'; // 2 local variables m = 'fish'; // global, because it wasn't declared anywhere before function child {var r = 'monkeys'; // This variable is local and does not affect the "birds" r of the parent function. z ...

  6. wait (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_(system_call)

    In computer operating systems, a process (or task) may wait for another process to complete its execution. In most systems, a parent process can create an independently executing child process . The parent process may then issue a wait system call , which suspends the execution of the parent process while the child executes.

  7. Breakpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakpoint

    It is also sometimes simply referred to as a pause. More generally, a breakpoint is a means of acquiring knowledge about a program during its execution. During the interruption , the programmer inspects the test environment ( general-purpose registers , memory , logs, files , etc.) to find out whether the program is functioning as expected.

  8. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(computer...

    A function definition starts with the name of the type of value that it returns or void to indicate that it does not return a value. This is followed by the function name, formal arguments in parentheses, and body lines in braces. In C++, a function declared in a class (as non-static) is called a member function or method.

    The transfer encodings the user agent is willing to accept: the same values as for the response header field Transfer-Encoding can be used, plus the "trailers" value (related to the "chunked" transfer method) to notify the server it expects to receive additional fields in the trailer after the last, zero-sized, chunk.
