  2. Burst error-correcting code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_error-correcting_code

    The process is subject to both burst errors and random errors. [7] Burst errors include those due to disc material (defects of aluminum reflecting film, poor reflective index of transparent disc material), disc production (faults during disc forming and disc cutting etc.), disc handling (scratches – generally thin, radial and orthogonal to ...

  3. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busy_waiting

    The following C code examples illustrate two threads that share a global integer i. The first thread uses busy-waiting to check for a change in the value of i : #include <pthread.h> #include <stdatomic.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> /* i is global, so it is visible to all functions.

  4. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Supporters claim that asynchronous, non-blocking code can be written with async/await that looks almost like traditional synchronous, blocking code. In particular, it has been argued that await is the best way of writing asynchronous code in message-passing programs; in particular, being close to blocking code, readability and the minimal ...

  5. Curiously recurring template pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curiously_recurring...

    The curiously recurring template pattern (CRTP) is an idiom, originally in C++, in which a class X derives from a class template instantiation using X itself as a template argument. [1] More generally it is known as F-bound polymorphism , and it is a form of F -bounded quantification .

  6. 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.

  7. Exception handling syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_handling_syntax

    C does not provide direct support to exception handling: it is the programmer's responsibility to prevent errors in the first place and test return values from the functions.

  8. Infinite loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

    Such errors are most common by novice programmers, but can be made by experienced programmers also, because their causes can be quite subtle. One common cause, for example, is that a programmer intends to iterate over sequence of nodes in a data structure such as a linked list or tree , executing the loop code once for each node.

  9. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In Python, a generator can be thought of as an iterator that contains a frozen stack frame. Whenever next() is called on the iterator, Python resumes the frozen frame, which executes normally until the next yield statement is reached. The generator's frame is then frozen again, and the yielded value is returned to the caller.
