  2. Position-independent code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position-independent_code

    In computing, position-independent code [1] (PIC [1]) or position-independent executable (PIE) [2] is a body of machine code that executes properly regardless of its memory address. [ a ] PIC is commonly used for shared libraries , so that the same library code can be loaded at a location in each program's address space where it does not ...

  3. Payment card number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payment_card_number

    Payment card numbers are composed of 8 to 19 digits, [1] The leading six or eight digits are the issuer identification number (IIN) sometimes referred to as the bank identification number (BIN). [2]: 33 [3] The remaining numbers, except the last digit, are the individual account identification number. The last digit is the Luhn check digit.

    The park is spread over 130 acres (53 ha) near the Arabian Sea coast. [1] The northern edge of the park includes the 1919 Jehangir Kothari Parade , the Katrak Bandstand, and former Karachi Aquarium. The 1921 Lady Lloyd Pier begins at the northern edge of the park near the Jehangir Kothari Parade, and extends 600 ft (180 m) into the park.

  6. Relocation (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relocation_(computing)

    Relocation is the process of assigning load addresses for position-dependent code and data of a program and adjusting the code and data to reflect the assigned addresses. [1] [2] Prior to the advent of multiprocess systems, and still in many embedded systems, the addresses for objects are absolute starting at a known location, often zero.

  7. Memory address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_address

    In a computer using virtual memory, accessing the location corresponding to a memory address may involve many levels. In computing, a memory address is a reference to a specific memory location in memory used by both software and hardware. [1] These addresses are fixed-length sequences of digits, typically displayed and handled as unsigned ...

  8. Bucket sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_sort

    Bucket sort, or bin sort, is a sorting algorithm that works by distributing the elements of an array into a number of buckets. Each bucket is then sorted individually, either using a different sorting algorithm, or by recursively applying the bucket sorting algorithm.

  9. Unary numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unary_numeral_system

    The unary numeral system is the simplest numeral system to represent natural numbers: [1] to represent a number N, a symbol representing 1 is repeated N times. [2]In the unary system, the number 0 (zero) is represented by the empty string, that is, the absence of a symbol.
