  2. Bitwise operations in C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operations_in_C

    For instance, working with a byte (the char type): 11001000 & 10111000 -------- = 10001000 The most significant bit of the first number is 1 and that of the second number is also 1 so the most significant bit of the result is 1; in the second most significant bit, the bit of second number is zero, so we have the result as 0.

  3. Orders of magnitude (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(data)

    160 bits (20 bytes) – maximum key length of the SHA-1, standard Tiger (hash function), and Tiger2 cryptographic message digest algorithms 2 8: 256 bits (32 bytes) – minimum key length for the recommended strong cryptographic message digests as of 2004 – size of an AVX2 vector register, present on newer x86-64 CPUs 2 9: 512 bits (64 bytes)

  4. Orders of magnitude (bit rate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(bit_rate)

    A group of 8 bits (8 bit) constitutes one byte (1 B). The byte is the most common unit of measurement of information (megabyte, mebibyte, gigabyte, gibibyte, etc.). The decimal SI prefixes kilo, mega etc., are powers of 10. The power of two equivalents are the binary prefixes kibi, mebi, etc. Accordingly: 1 kB = 1000 bytes = 8000 bits

  5. Three-way comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-way_comparison

    In C++, any class that can be three-way compared can be a parameter to instances of std::compare_three_way, std::strong_order, std::weak_order, or std::partial_order. Since Java version 1.5, the same can be computed using the Math.signum static method if the difference can be known without computational problems such as arithmetic overflow ...

  6. C data types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_data_types

    The element pc requires ten blocks of memory of the size of pointer to char (usually 40 or 80 bytes on common platforms), but element pa is only one pointer (size 4 or 8 bytes), and the data it refers to is an array of ten bytes (sizeof * pa == 10).

  7. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    Assuming the array is, say, a contiguous 16 megabyte character data structure, individual bytes (or a string of contiguous bytes within the array) can be directly addressed and manipulated using the name of the array with a 31 bit unsigned integer as the simulated pointer (this is quite similar to the C arrays example shown above). Pointer ...

  8. Bitwise operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation

    In computer programming, a bitwise operation operates on a bit string, a bit array or a binary numeral (considered as a bit string) at the level of its individual bits.It is a fast and simple action, basic to the higher-level arithmetic operations and directly supported by the processor.

  9. Mask (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    Using a mask, multiple bits in a byte, nibble, word, etc. can be set either on or off, or inverted from on to off (or vice versa) in a single bitwise operation. An additional use of masking involves predication in vector processing , where the bitmask is used to select which element operations in the vector are to be executed (mask bit is ...
