  2. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    Because the while loop checks the condition/expression before the block is executed, the control structure is often also known as a pre-test loop. Compare this with the do while loop, which tests the condition/expression after the loop has executed. For example, in the languages C, Java, C#, [2] Objective-C, and C++, (which use the same syntax ...

    An example of the fine detail possible with the usage of derbail, rendered with 1024 samples ... For example, within the while loop of the pseudocode above, make the ...

  4. Pseudocode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudocode

    In computer science, pseudocode is a description of the steps in an algorithm using a mix of conventions of programming languages (like assignment operator, conditional operator, loop) with informal, usually self-explanatory, notation of actions and conditions.

  5. Termination analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termination_analysis

    An example of a programming language construct which may or may not terminate is a loop, as they can be run repeatedly. Loops implemented using a counter variable as typically found in data processing algorithms will usually terminate, demonstrated by the pseudocode example below:

  6. Monitor (synchronization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_(synchronization)

    Here is an example pseudocode implementation of parts of a threading system and mutexes and Mesa-style condition variables, using test-and-set and a first-come, first-served policy: Sample Mesa-monitor implementation with Test-and-Set

  7. Infinite loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

    Infinite loops can be implemented using various control flow constructs. Most commonly, in unstructured programming this is jump back up , while in structured programming this is an indefinite loop (while loop) set to never end, either by omitting the condition or explicitly setting it to true, as while (true) ....

  8. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    If xxx1 is omitted, we get a loop with the test at the top (a traditional while loop). If xxx2 is omitted, we get a loop with the test at the bottom, equivalent to a do while loop in many languages. If while is omitted, we get an infinite loop. The construction here can be thought of as a do loop with the while check in the middle. Hence this ...

  9. Sentinel value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_value

    In computer programming, a sentinel value (also referred to as a flag value, trip value, rogue value, signal value, or dummy data) is a special value in the context of an algorithm which uses its presence as a condition of termination, typically in a loop or recursive algorithm.
