  2. The Power of 10: Rules for Developing Safety-Critical Code

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_of_10:_Rules_for...

    All loops must have fixed bounds. This prevents runaway code. Avoid heap memory allocation. Restrict functions to a single printed page. Use a minimum of two runtime assertions per function. Restrict the scope of data to the smallest possible. Check the return value of all non-void functions, or cast to void to indicate the return value is useless.

  3. Return statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return_statement

    In C and C++, return exp; (where exp is an expression) is a statement that tells a function to return execution of the program to the calling function, and report the value of exp. If a function has the return type void , the return statement can be used without a value, in which case the program just breaks out of the current function and ...

  4. Proof of work - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_work

    Proof of work (also written as proof-of-work, an abbreviated PoW) is a form of cryptographic proof in which one party (the prover) proves to others (the verifiers) that a certain amount of a specific computational effort has been expended. [1] Verifiers can subsequently confirm this expenditure with minimal effort on their part.

    However, do note that a shift operand value which is either a negative number or is greater than or equal to the total number of bits in this value results in undefined behavior. This is defined in the standard at ISO 9899:2011 6.5.7 Bit-wise shift operators .

  6. C23 (C standard revision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C23_(C_standard_revision)

    Add stdc_first_trailing_one*() and stdc_first_trailing_zero*() to find first trailing bit with 1 or 0 in value. [11] Add stdc_has_single_bit*() to determine if value is an exact power of 2 (return true if and only if there is a single 1 bit). [11] Add stdc_bit_floor*() to determine the largest integral power of 2 that is not greater than value ...

  7. C syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_syntax

    A snippet of C code which prints "Hello, World!". The syntax of the C programming language is the set of rules governing writing of software in C. It is designed to allow for programs that are extremely terse, have a close relationship with the resulting object code, and yet provide relatively high-level data abstraction.

  8. Type signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_signature

    Thus, calling f x, where f:: a-> b-> c, yields a new function f2:: b-> c that can be called f2 b to produce c. The actual type specifications can consist of an actual type, such as Integer, or a general type variable that is used in parametric polymorphic functions, such as a, or b, or anyType. So we can write something like: functionName:: a ...

    Assign a data type to the return value, if any; Specify a return value in the function body; Call a function; Provide actual parameters that correspond to a called function's formal parameters; Return control to the caller at the point of call; Consume the return value in the caller; Dispose of the values returned by a call
