The Pascal programming language supports digraphs (., .), (* and *) for [, ], {and } respectively. Unlike all other cases mentioned here, (* and *) were and still are in wide use. However, many compilers treat them as a different type of commenting block rather than as actual digraphs, that is, a comment started with (* cannot be closed with ...
In the C programming language, operations can be performed on a bit level using bitwise operators. Bitwise operations are contrasted by byte-level operations which characterize the bitwise operators' logical counterparts, the AND, OR, NOT operators. Instead of performing on individual bits, byte-level operators perform on strings of eight bits ...
The first commercially successful electronic gear shift system for road bicycles was introduced by Shimano in 2009, the Di2. [3] Three professional teams used the Di2 in the 2009 Tour of California: Columbia High Road, Garmin Slipstream, and Rabobank; [3] and several teams and riders, including George Hincapie, used it during the 2009 Tour de ...
The (1999) ISO standard for the programming language C defines the right shift operator in terms of divisions by powers of 2. [11] Because of the above-stated non-equivalence, the standard explicitly excludes from that definition the right shifts of signed numbers that have negative values.
The C language provides basic arithmetic types, such as integer and real number types, and syntax to build array and compound types. Headers for the C standard library , to be used via include directives , contain definitions of support types, that have additional properties, such as providing storage with an exact size, independent of the ...
Many programming languages provide functions that can be used to divide a floating point number by a power of two. For example, the Java programming language provides the method java.lang.Math.scalb for scaling by a power of two, [7] and the C programming language provides the function ldexp for the same purpose.

The reset delimits the continuation that shift captures (named by k in this example). When this snippet is executed, the use of shift will bind k to the continuation (+ 1 []) where [] represents the part of the computation that is to be filled with a value. This continuation directly corresponds to the code that surrounds the shift up to the reset.
