At Microsoft, a critical bug was discovered in the Xbox 360 memory module during the process of writing a specification in TLA +. [24] TLA + was used to write formal proofs of correctness for Byzantine Paxos and components of the Pastry distributed hash table. [17] Amazon Web Services has used TLA + since 2011.
LyX (styled as L Y X; pronounced [3]) is an open source, graphical user interface document processor based on the LaTeX typesetting system. Unlike most word processors, which follow the WYSIWYG ("what you see is what you get") paradigm, LyX has a WYSIWYM ("what you see is what you mean") approach, where what shows up on the screen roughly depicts the semantic structure of the page and is only ...
LaTeX (/ ˈ l ɑː t ɛ k / ⓘ LAH-tek or / ˈ l eɪ t ɛ k / LAY-tek, [2] [Note 1] often stylized as L a T e X) is a software system for typesetting documents. [3] LaTeX markup describes the content and layout of the document, as opposed to the formatted text found in WYSIWYG word processors like Google Docs, LibreOffice Writer, and Microsoft Word.
For Vim, possible plugins include Vim-LaTeX Suite, [50] Automatic TeX, [51] and TeX-9. [52] For Apache OpenOffice and LibreOffice, iMath and TexMaths extensions can provide mathematical TeX typesetting. [53] [54] For MediaWiki, the Math extension provides mathematical TeX typesetting, but the code needs to be surrounded by <math> tag.
Section 2.5 of ‘Fundamental Algorithms’ is on Dynamic Storage Allocation. Parts of this are used in the Burroughs approach to memory management. Knuth claims credit for “The “boundary-tag” method, introduced in Section 2.5, was designed by the author in 1962 for use in a control program for the B5000 computer.” [9]: 460
A fifth-generation programming language (5GL) is a high-level programming language based on problem-solving using constraints given to the program, rather than using an algorithm written by a programmer. [1] Most constraint-based and logic programming languages and some other declarative languages are fifth-generation languages.
In the C++ Standard Library, the algorithms library provides various functions that perform algorithmic operations on containers and other sequences, represented by Iterators. [1] The C++ standard provides some standard algorithms collected in the <algorithm> standard header. [2] A handful of algorithms are also in the <numeric> header.
An abstract syntax tree for the following code for the Euclidean algorithm: while b ≠ 0 : if a > b : a := a - b else : b := b - a return a An abstract syntax tree ( AST ) is a data structure used in computer science to represent the structure of a program or code snippet.
