  2. deb (file format) - Wikipedia

    Diagram showing an example file structure of a .deb file Frhed hex editor displaying the raw data of a Debian package. Prior to Debian 0.93, a package consisted of a file header and two concatenated gzip archives. [6] Since Debian 0.93, a deb package is implemented as an ar archive. [7] This archive contains three files in a specific order: [8] [9]

  3. Reproducible builds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproducible_builds

    Reproducible builds can act as part of a chain of trust; [1] the source code can be signed, and deterministic compilation can prove that the binary was compiled from trusted source code. Verified reproducible builds provide a strong countermeasure against attacks where binaries do not match their source code, e.g., because an attacker has ...

  4. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    The modern binary number system, the basis for binary code, is an invention by Gottfried Leibniz in 1689 and appears in his article Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire (English: Explanation of the Binary Arithmetic) which uses only the characters 1 and 0, and some remarks on its usefulness. Leibniz's system uses 0 and 1, like the modern ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary

    Binary code, the representation of text and data using only the digits 1 and 0; Bit, or binary digit, the basic unit of information in computers; Binary file, composed of something other than human-readable text Executable, a type of binary file that contains machine code for the computer to execute

  6. Truncated binary encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_binary_encoding

    It takes 3 bits to encode n using straightforward binary encoding, hence 2 3 − n = 8 − 5 = 3 are unused.. In numerical terms, to send a value x, where 0 ≤ x < n, and where there are 2 k ≤ n < 2 k+1 symbols, there are u = 2 k+1 − n unused entries when the alphabet size is rounded up to the nearest power of two.

  7. STL (file format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_(file_format)

    STL is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. [3] [4] [5] Chuck Hull, the inventor of stereolithography and 3D Systems’ founder, reports that the file extension is an abbreviation for stereolithography, [6] although it is also referred to as standard triangle language or standard tessellation language.

  8. Multiplicative binary search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_binary_search

    Multiplicative binary search operates on a permuted sorted array. Keys are stored in the array in a level-order sequence of the corresponding balanced binary search tree. This places the first pivot of a binary search as the first element in the array. The second pivots are placed at the next two positions.
