Example of branch table in Wikibooks for IBM S/360; Examples of, and arguments for, Jump Tables via Function Pointer Arrays in C/C++; Example code generated by 'Switch/Case' branch table in C, versus IF/ELSE. Example code generated for array indexing if structure size is divisible by powers of 2 or otherwise.
a b c Deep breaks may be accomplished in APL, C, C++ and C# through the use of labels and gotos. a Iteration over objects was added in PHP 5. a b c A counting loop can be simulated by iterating over an incrementing list or generator, for instance, Python's range() .
A combination of state variables and structured control, notably an overall switch statement, can allow a subroutine to resume execution at an arbitrary point on subsequent calls, and is a structured alternative to goto statements in the absence of coroutines; this is a common idiom in C, for example.
[a] Branch (or branching, branched) may also refer to the act of switching execution to a different instruction sequence as a result of executing a branch instruction. Branch instructions are used to implement control flow in program loops and conditionals (i.e., executing a particular sequence of instructions only if certain conditions are ...
Unconditional branching statements allow an execution sequence to be transferred to another part of a program. These include the jump (called goto in many languages), switch , and the subprogram, subroutine , or procedure call (which usually returns to the next statement after the call).
Multiway branch is the change to a program's control flow based upon a value matching a selected criteria. It is a form of conditional statement . A multiway branch is often the most efficient method of passing control to one of a set of program labels , especially if an index has been created beforehand from the raw data .
A snippet of C code which prints "Hello, World!". The syntax of the C programming language is the set of rules governing writing of software in C. It is designed to allow for programs that are extremely terse, have a close relationship with the resulting object code, and yet provide relatively high-level data abstraction.
In computer science, a binary decision diagram (BDD) or branching program is a data structure that is used to represent a Boolean function. On a more abstract level, BDDs can be considered as a compressed representation of sets or relations. Unlike other compressed representations, operations are performed directly on the compressed ...
