  2. Null-terminated string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null-terminated_string

    Some systems use "modified UTF-8" which encodes NUL as two non-zero bytes (0xC0, 0x80) and thus allow all possible strings to be stored. This is not allowed by the UTF-8 standard, because it is an overlong encoding, and it is seen as a security risk. Some other byte may be used as end of string instead, like 0xFE or 0xFF, which are not used in ...

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    A snippet of Python code with keywords highlighted in bold yellow font. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java. However, there are some ...

  4. Static single-assignment form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_single-assignment_form

    jackcc is an open-source compiler for the academic instruction set Jackal 3.0. It uses a simple 3-operand code with SSA for its intermediate representation. As an interesting variant, it replaces Φ functions with a so-called SAME instruction, which instructs the register allocator to place the two live ranges into the same physical register.

  5. Loop unrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_unrolling

    On the other hand, this manual loop unrolling expands the source code size from 3 lines to 7, that have to be produced, checked, and debugged, and the compiler may have to allocate more registers to store variables in the expanded loop iteration [dubious – discuss]. In addition, the loop control variables and number of operations inside the ...

  6. Whitespace (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_(programming...

    Whitespace defines a command as a sequences of whitespace characters. For example, [Tab][Space][Space][Space] performs arithmetic addition of the top two elements on the stack. A command is written as an instruction modification parameter (IMP) followed by an operation and then any parameters. [1] IMP sequences include:

  7. Inline expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inline_expansion

    In computing, inline expansion, or inlining, is a manual or compiler optimization that replaces a function call site with the body of the called function. Inline expansion is similar to macro expansion, but occurs during compilation, without changing the source code (the text), while macro expansion occurs prior to compilation, and results in different text that is then processed by the compiler.

  8. String literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_literal

    For example, in Python, raw strings are preceded by an r or R – compare 'C:\\Windows' with r'C:\Windows' (though, a Python raw string cannot end in an odd number of backslashes). Python 2 also distinguishes two types of strings: 8-bit ASCII ("bytes") strings (the default), explicitly indicated with a b or B prefix, and Unicode strings ...
