  2. Stack (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)

    A stack may be implemented as, for example, a singly linked list with a pointer to the top element. A stack may be implemented to have a bounded capacity. If the stack is full and does not contain enough space to accept another element, the stack is in a state of stack overflow. A stack is needed to implement depth-first search.

  3. Initialization-on-demand holder idiom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization-on-demand...

    The implementation of the idiom relies on the initialization phase of execution within the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) as specified by the Java Language Specification (JLS). [3] When the class Something is loaded by the JVM, the class goes through initialization. Since the class does not have any static variables to initialize, the ...

  4. Resource acquisition is initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_acquisition_is...

    Resource acquisition is initialization (RAII) [1] is a programming idiom [2] used in several object-oriented, statically typed programming languages to describe a particular language behavior. In RAII, holding a resource is a class invariant , and is tied to object lifetime .

  5. Data segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_segment

    The stack segment contains the call stack, a LIFO structure, typically located in the higher parts of memory. A "stack pointer" register tracks the top of the stack; it is adjusted each time a value is "pushed" onto the stack. The set of values pushed for one function call is termed a "stack frame". A stack frame consists at minimum of a return ...

  6. Comparison of Java and C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Java_and_C++

    Java only allocates memory via object instantiation. Arbitrary memory blocks may be allocated in Java as an array of bytes. Java and C++ use different idioms for resource management. Java relies mainly on garbage collection, which can reclaim memory, [7] while C++ relies mainly on the Resource Acquisition Is Initialization (RAII) idiom. This is ...

  7. Initialization (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initialization_(programming)

    In computer programming, initialization or initialisation is the assignment of an initial value for a data object or variable. The manner in which initialization is performed depends on the programming language , as well as the type, storage class, etc., of an object to be initialized.

  8. Uninitialized variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninitialized_variable

    Languages such as C use stack space for variables, and the collection of variables allocated for a subroutine is known as a stack frame. While the computer will set aside the appropriate amount of space for the stack frame, it usually does so simply by adjusting the value of the stack pointer , and does not set the memory itself to any new ...

  9. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    Java constructors perform the following tasks in the following order: Call the default constructor of the superclass if no constructor is defined. Initialize member variables to the specified values. Executes the body of the constructor. Java permit users to call one constructor in another constructor using this() keyword.
