  2. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Python supports conditional execution of code depending on whether a loop was exited early (with a break statement) or not by using an else-clause with the loop. For example, For example, for n in set_of_numbers : if isprime ( n ): print ( "Set contains a prime number" ) break else : print ( "Set did not contain any prime numbers" )

  3. 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 ...

  4. Do while loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_while_loop

    In many computer programming languages, a do while loop is a control flow statement that executes a block of code and then either repeats the block or exits the loop depending on a given boolean condition. The do while construct consists of a process symbol and a condition. First the code within the block is executed. Then the condition is ...

  5. Breakpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakpoint

    More generally, a breakpoint is a means of acquiring knowledge about a program during its execution. During the interruption , the programmer inspects the test environment ( general-purpose registers , memory , logs, files , etc.) to find out whether the program is functioning as expected.

  6. Execution model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_model

    The language specification defines a statement as a chunk of syntax that is terminated by a ";". The language spec then says that "execution of the program proceeds one statement after the other, in sequence". Those words: "execution of the program proceeds one statement after the other, in sequence" are one piece of the execution model of C.

  7. Goto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goto

    According to the Java documentation, the use of gotos for multi-level breaks was the most common (90%) use of gotos in C. [31] Java was not the first language to take this approach—forbidding goto, but providing multi-level breaks— the BLISS programming language (more precisely the BLISS-11 version thereof) preceded it in this respect.

  8. Loop unrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_unrolling

    Loop unrolling, also known as loop unwinding, is a loop transformation technique that attempts to optimize a program's execution speed at the expense of its binary size, which is an approach known as space–time tradeoff. The transformation can be undertaken manually by the programmer or by an optimizing compiler.

  9. Continuation-passing style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation-passing_style

    In order to call a procedure written in CPS from a procedure written in direct style, it is necessary to provide a continuation that will receive the result computed by the CPS procedure. In the example above (assuming that CPS primitives have been provided), we might call (factorial& 10 (lambda (x) (display x) (newline))) .
