  2. Increment and decrement operators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Increment_and_decrement...

    The post-increment and post-decrement operators increase (or decrease) the value of their operand by 1, but the value of the expression is the operand's value prior to the increment (or decrement) operation. In languages where increment/decrement is not an expression (e.g., Go), only one version is needed (in the case of Go, post operators only).

  3. Stride of an array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stride_of_an_array

    In computer programming, the stride of an array (also referred to as increment, pitch or step size) is the number of locations in memory between beginnings of successive array elements, measured in bytes or in units of the size of the array's elements. The stride cannot be smaller than the element size but can be larger, indicating extra space ...

  4. Memory ordering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_ordering

    This guarantees the order of the two addition operations, but potentially introduces a new problem of address aliasing: any of these pointers could potentially refer to the same memory location. For example, let's assume in this example that *c and *sum are aliased to the same memory location, and rewrite both versions of the program with *sum ...

  5. Machine code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_code

    Machine code is generally different from bytecode (also known as p-code), which is either executed by an interpreter or itself compiled into machine code for faster (direct) execution. An exception is when a processor is designed to use a particular bytecode directly as its machine code, such as is the case with Java processors .

  6. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(computer...

    In Python, a generator can be thought of as an iterator that contains a frozen stack frame. Whenever next() is called on the iterator, Python resumes the frozen frame, which executes normally until the next yield statement is reached. The generator's frame is then frozen again, and the yielded value is returned to the caller.

  7. Low-level programming language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-level_programming_language

    Machine code is the form in which code that can be directly executed is stored on a computer. It consists of machine language instructions, stored in memory, that perform operations such as moving values in and out of memory locations, arithmetic and Boolean logic, and testing values and, based on the test, either executing the next instruction in memory or executing an instruction at another ...

  8. Sequence point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_point

    C++17 restricted several aspects of evaluation order. The new expression will always perform the memory allocation before evaluating the constructor arguments. The operators <<, >>, ., .*, ->*, and the subscript and function call operator are guaranteed to be evaluated left to right (whether they are overloaded or not). For example, the code

  9. Three-way comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-way_comparison

    In C++, the C++20 revision adds the spaceship operator <=>, which returns a value that encodes whether the 2 values are equal, less, greater, or unordered and can return different types depending on the strictness of the comparison. [3] The name's origin is due to it reminding Randal L. Schwartz of the spaceship in an HP BASIC Star Trek game. [4]
