  2. Limaçon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limaçon

    In geometry, a limaçon or limacon / ˈ l ɪ m ə s ɒ n /, also known as a limaçon of Pascal or Pascal's Snail, is defined as a roulette curve formed by the path of a point fixed to a circle when that circle rolls around the outside of a circle of equal radius. It can also be defined as the roulette formed when a circle rolls around a circle ...

    The inner loop is defined when + ⁡ on the polar angle interval / /, and is symmetric about the polar axis. The point furthest from the pole on the inner loop has the coordinates ( a , 0 ) {\displaystyle (a,0)} , and on the polar axis, is one-third of the distance from the pole compared to the furthest point of the outer loop.

  4. Loop interchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_interchange

    The major purpose of loop interchange is to take advantage of the CPU cache when accessing array elements. When a processor accesses an array element for the first time, it will retrieve an entire block of data from memory to cache. That block is likely to have many more consecutive elements after the first one, so on the next array element ...

  5. Perl control structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perl_control_structures

    Perl provides three loop control keywords that all accept an optional loop label as an argument. If no label is specified, the keywords act on the innermost loop. Within nested loops, the use of labels enables control to move from an inner loop to an outer one, or out of the outer loop altogether.

  6. Inner loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_loop

    In some cases, a while loop with an inner while loop performed slower than a while loop without an inner loop. The two examples below, written in Python, present a while loop with an inner for loop and a while loop without an inner loop. Although both have the same terminating condition for their while loops, the first example will finish ...

  7. In-place matrix transposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-place_matrix_transposition

    That is, they loop over the cycles, moving the data from one location to the next in the cycle. In pseudocode form: for each length>1 cycle C of the permutation pick a starting address s in C let D = data at s let x = predecessor of s in the cycle while x ≠ s move data from x to successor of x let x = predecessor of x move data from D to ...

  8. Array programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_programming

    The fundamental idea behind array programming is that operations apply at once to an entire set of values. This makes it a high-level programming model as it allows the programmer to think and operate on whole aggregates of data, without having to resort to explicit loops of individual scalar operations.

  9. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach_loop

    The macro is unhygienic: it declares a new variable in the existing scope which remains after the loop. One foreach macro cannot be defined that works with different collection types (e.g., array and linked list) or that is extensible to user types. C string as a collection of char
