  2. Halt and Catch Fire (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halt_and_Catch_Fire...

    The Motorola 6800 microprocessor was the first for which an undocumented assembly mnemonic HCF became widely known. The operation codes (opcodes—the portions of the machine language instructions that specify an operation to be performed) hexadecimal 9D and DD were reported and given the unofficial mnemonic HCF in a December 1977 article by Gerry Wheeler in BYTE magazine on undocumented ...

  3. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    Locally decodable codes are error-correcting codes for which single bits of the message can be probabilistically recovered by only looking at a small (say constant) number of positions of a codeword, even after the codeword has been corrupted at some constant fraction of positions.

  4. MATLAB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB

    MATLAB (an abbreviation of "MATrix LABoratory" [18]) is a proprietary multi-paradigm programming language and numeric computing environment developed by MathWorks.MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages.

  5. Exit status - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_status

    In computing, the exit status (also exit code or exit value) of a terminated process is an integer number that is made available to its parent process (or caller). In DOS , this may be referred to as an errorlevel .

  6. Hang (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hang_(computing)

    February 2023) (Learn how and when to remove this message) In computing , a hang or freeze occurs when either a process or system ceases to respond to inputs . A typical example is when computer's graphical user interface (such as Microsoft Windows [ a ] ) no longer responds to the user typing on the keyboard or moving the mouse.

  7. Cyclic redundancy check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check

    Cyclic codes are not only simple to implement but have the benefit of being particularly well suited for the detection of burst errors: contiguous sequences of erroneous data symbols in messages. This is important because burst errors are common transmission errors in many communication channels , including magnetic and optical storage devices.

  8. Exception handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_handling

    Social pressure is a major influence on the scope of exceptions and use of exception-handling mechanisms, i.e. "examples of use, typically found in core libraries, and code examples in technical books, magazine articles, and online discussion forums, and in an organization’s code standards".

  9. Reed–Solomon error correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed–Solomon_error...

    The QR code, Ver 3 (29×29) uses interleaved blocks. The message has 26 data bytes and is encoded using two Reed-Solomon code blocks. Each block is a (255,233) Reed Solomon code shortened to a (35,13) code. The Delsarte–Goethals–Seidel [12] theorem illustrates an example of an application of shortened Reed–Solomon codes.
