  2. List of Java keywords - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Java_keywords

    From Java 8 onwards, the default keyword can be used to allow an interface to provide an implementation of a method. do The do keyword is used in conjunction with while to create a do-while loop, which executes a block of statements associated with the loop and then tests a boolean expression associated with the while.

  3. Branch (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_(computer_science)

    An example of a simple hardware branch prediction scheme is to assume that all backward branches (i.e. to a smaller program counter) are taken (because they are part of a loop), and all forward branches (to a larger program counter) are not taken (because they leave a loop). Better branch predictors are developed and validated statistically by ...

  4. List of Java bytecode instructions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Java_bytecode...

    This is a list of the instructions that make up the Java bytecode, an abstract machine language that is ultimately executed by the Java virtual machine. [1] The Java bytecode is generated from languages running on the Java Platform, most notably the Java programming language.

  5. Binary decision diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_decision_diagram

    In computer science, a binary decision diagram (BDD) or branching program is a data structure that is used to represent a Boolean function. On a more abstract level, BDDs can be considered as a compressed representation of sets or relations. Unlike other compressed representations, operations are performed directly on the compressed ...

  6. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    The following example is done in Ada which supports both early exit from loops and loops with test in the middle. Both features are very similar and comparing both code snippets will show the difference: early exit must be combined with an if statement while a condition in the middle is a self-contained construct.

  7. Indirect branch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indirect_branch

    An indirect branch (also known as a computed jump, indirect jump and register-indirect jump) is a type of program control instruction present in some machine language instruction sets. Rather than specifying the address of the next instruction to execute , as in a direct branch , the argument specifies where the address is located.

  8. Branch predictor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_predictor

    Branch predictors play a critical role in achieving high performance in many modern pipelined microprocessor architectures. Figure 1: Example of 4-stage pipeline. The colored boxes represent instructions independent of each other. Two-way branching is usually implemented with a conditional jump instruction. A conditional jump can either be ...

  9. Nassi–Shneiderman diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nassi–Shneiderman_diagram

    Multiple branching blocks. Testing loops: this block allows the program to loop one or a set of processes until a particular condition is fulfilled. The process blocks covered by each loop are subset with a side-bar extending out from the condition. There are two main types of testing loops, test first and test last blocks.
