  2. Swap (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swap_(computer_programming)

    In computer programming, the act of swapping two variables refers to mutually exchanging the values of the variables. Usually, this is done with the data in memory. For example, in a program, two variables may be defined thus (in pseudocode): data_item x := 1 data_item y := 0 swap (x, y);

  3. XOR swap algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_swap_algorithm

    Using the XOR swap algorithm to exchange nibbles between variables without the use of temporary storage. In computer programming, the exclusive or swap (sometimes shortened to XOR swap) is an algorithm that uses the exclusive or bitwise operation to swap the values of two variables without using the temporary variable which is normally required.

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    IronPython allows running Python 2.7 programs (and an alpha, released in 2021, is also available for "Python 3.4, although features and behaviors from later versions may be included" [170]) on the .NET Common Language Runtime. [171] Jython compiles Python 2.7 to Java bytecode, allowing the use of the Java libraries from a Python program. [172]

  5. Compare-and-swap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compare-and-swap

    Single compare, double swap Compares one pointer but writes two. The Itanium's cmp8xchg16 instruction implements this, [15] where the two written pointers are adjacent. Multi-word compare-and-swap Is a generalisation of normal compare-and-swap. It can be used to atomically swap an arbitrary number of arbitrarily located memory locations.

  6. Switch statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement

    Switch statements function somewhat similarly to the if statement used in programming languages like C/C++, C#, Visual Basic .NET, Java and exist in most high-level imperative programming languages such as Pascal, Ada, C/C++, C#, [1]: 374–375 Visual Basic .NET, Java, [2]: 157–167 and in many other types of language, using such keywords as ...

  7. Double-checked locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-checked_locking

    Due to the semantics of some programming languages, the code generated by the compiler is allowed to update the shared variable to point to a partially constructed object before A has finished performing the initialization. For example, in Java if a call to a constructor has been inlined then the shared variable may immediately be updated once ...

  8. Stack (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)

    Swap or exchange: the two topmost items on the stack exchange places. Rotate (or Roll): the n topmost items are moved on the stack in a rotating fashion. For example, if n = 3, items 1, 2, and 3 on the stack are moved to positions 2, 3, and 1 on the stack

  9. 2-opt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-opt

    2-opt. In optimization, 2-opt is a simple local search algorithm for solving the traveling salesman problem. The 2-opt algorithm was first proposed by Croes in 1958, [1] although the basic move had already been suggested by Flood. [2] The main idea behind it is to take a route that crosses over itself and reorder it so that it does not.
