  2. 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.

  3. Goto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goto

    GOTO" key on the 1982 ZX Spectrum home computer, implemented with native BASIC (one-key command entry). Goto is a statement found in many computer programming languages. It performs a one-way transfer of control to another line of code; in contrast a function call normally returns control.

  4. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Sometimes within the body of a loop there is a desire to skip the remainder of the loop body and continue with the next iteration of the loop. Some languages provide a statement such as continue (most languages), skip, [8] cycle (Fortran), or next (Perl and Ruby), which will do this. The effect is to prematurely terminate the innermost loop ...

  5. Outer loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_loop

    The outer loop (counter-clockwise roadway) of Interstate 495 (Capital Beltway) A beltway that encircles an urban area's "outer" limits or the outermost beltway. The proposed Outer Perimeter around Atlanta, Georgia; New York State Route 47, the former designation of the Outer Loop expressway around Rochester, New York

  6. Infinite loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

    As long as the system is responsive, infinite loops can often be interrupted by sending a signal to the process (such as SIGINT in Unix), or an interrupt to the processor, causing the current process to be aborted. This can be done in a task manager, in a terminal with the Control-C command, [9] or by using the kill command or system call.

  7. Command-line interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface

    An MS-DOS command line, illustrating parsing into command and arguments. A command-line argument or parameter is an item of information provided to a program when it is started. [23] A program can have many command-line arguments that identify sources or destinations of information, or that alter the operation of the program.

  8. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    The loop counter is used to decide when the loop should terminate and for the program flow to continue to the next instruction after the loop. A common identifier naming convention is for the loop counter to use the variable names i, j, and k (and so on if needed), where i would be the most outer loop, j the next inner loop, etc. The reverse ...

  9. Asynchronous I/O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_I/O

    Often, for ease of use, the select loop is implemented as an event loop, perhaps using callback functions; the situation lends itself particularly well to event-driven programming. While this method is reliable and relatively efficient, it depends heavily on the Unix paradigm that " everything is a file "; any blocking I/O that does not involve ...
