    FormGen Inc. found that user-generated maps were derivative works of the original game. In Sega v. Accolade , the 9th Circuit held that making copies in the course of reverse engineering is a fair use, when it is the only way to get access to the "ideas and functional elements" in the copyrighted code, and when "there is a legitimate reason for ...

  4. Null pointer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_pointer

    In some programming language environments (at least one proprietary Lisp implementation, for example), [citation needed] the value used as the null pointer (called nil in Lisp) may actually be a pointer to a block of internal data useful to the implementation (but not explicitly reachable from user programs), thus allowing the same register to be used as a useful constant and a quick way of ...

  5. Dangling pointer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangling_pointer

    Another strategy, when suspecting a small set of classes, is to temporarily make all their member functions virtual: after the class instance has been destructed/freed, its pointer to the Virtual Method Table is set to NULL, and any call to a member function will crash the program and it will show the guilty code in the debugger.

  6. Null character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_character

    In source code, the null character is often represented as the escape sequence \0 in string literals (for example, "abc\0def") or in character constants ('\0'); the latter may also be written instead simply as 0 (without quotes nor slash). [8]

  7. Segmentation fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmentation_fault

    Dereferencing any of these variables could cause a segmentation fault: dereferencing the null pointer generally will cause a segfault, while reading from the wild pointer may instead result in random data but no segfault, and reading from the dangling pointer may result in valid data for a while, and then random data as it is overwritten.

  8. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    A pointer a pointing to the memory address associated with a variable b, i.e., a contains the memory address 1008 of the variable b.In this diagram, the computing architecture uses the same address space and data primitive for both pointers and non-pointers; this need not be the case.

  9. Video game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game

    A video game [a] or computer game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface or input device (such as a joystick, controller, keyboard, or motion sensing device) to generate visual feedback from a display device, most commonly shown in a video format on a television set, computer monitor, flat-panel display or touchscreen on handheld devices, or a virtual reality ...
