  2. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Executing a set of statements only if some condition is met (choice - i.e., conditional branch) Executing a set of statements zero or more times, until some condition is met (i.e., loop - the same as conditional branch) Executing a set of distant statements, after which the flow of control usually returns (subroutines, coroutines, and ...

  3. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    The condition/expression is evaluated, and if the condition/expression is true, [1] the code within all of their following in the block is executed. This repeats until the condition/expression becomes false. Because the while loop checks the condition/expression before the block is executed, the control structure is often also known as a pre ...

  4. Conditional loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_loop

    A conditional loop has the potential to become an infinite loop when nothing in the loop's body can affect the outcome of the loop's conditional statement. However, infinite loops can sometimes be used purposely, often with an exit from the loop built into the loop implementation for every computer language , but many share the same basic ...

  5. JavaScript syntax - Wikipedia

    Next, this value is rounded to nearest Number type value. Boolean If one of the operands is a Boolean, the Boolean operand is converted to 1 if it is true, or to 0 if it is false. Object If an object is compared with a number or string, JavaScript attempts to return the default value for the object.

  6. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    Granted that the loop variable's value is defined after the termination of the loop, then the above statement will find the first non-positive element in array A (and if no such, its value will be N + 1), or, with suitable variations, the first non-blank character in a string, and so on.

  7. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In programming language theory, lazy evaluation, or call-by-need, [1] is an evaluation strategy which delays the evaluation of an expression until its value is needed (non-strict evaluation) and which also avoids repeated evaluations (by the use of sharing). [2] [3] The benefits of lazy evaluation include:

  8. Control-flow graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-flow_graph

    Some CFG examples: (a) an if-then-else (b) a while loop (c) a natural loop with two exits, e.g. while with an if...break in the middle; non-structured but reducible (d) an irreducible CFG: a loop with two entry points, e.g. goto into a while or for loop A control-flow graph used by the Rust compiler to perform codegen.

  9. Off-by-one error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-by-one_error

    The correct number of sections for a fence is n − 1 if the fence is a free-standing line segment bounded by a post at each of its ends (e.g., a fence between two passageway gaps), n if the fence forms one complete, free-standing loop (e.g., enclosure accessible by surmounting, such as a boxing ring), or n + 1 if posts do not occur at the ends ...
