Many programmers code by instinct, relying on convenient habits or a "style" they picked up early on. They aren't conscious of all the choices they make, like how they format their source, the names they use for variables, or the kinds of loops they
Linux is developed with a strong practical emphasis more than a theoretical one. When new algorithms are suggested or existing implementations questioned, it is common to request code to match the argument. Many of the algorithms used in the Virtual

The first Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium took place in May 1994 at Cornell University. The preface to its proceedings has the organizers expressing the hope that the meeting would be “the first in a long series of international conferences on t
The SQLAlchemy Object Relational Mapper presents a method of associating user-defined Python classes with database tables, and instances of those classes (objects) with rows in their corresponding tables. It includes a sys- tem that transparently sy
The PopCap game framework, named SexyApp Framework, is a flexible high-level library that provides commonly required functions and reusable components. The framework is designed to facilitate rapid development of high-quality games by allowing game
Apache Pig is a platform for analyzing large data sets that consists of a high-level language for expressing data analysis programs, coupled with infrastructure for evaluating these programs. The salient property of Pig programs is that their struct
Land-Based JPALS is not developing a dedicated JPALS LRU •Platforms are expressing the greatest interest in “single LRU” JPALS solutions based on existing avionics •Civil modes enable JPALS equipped aircraft to land at civil airfields: •Equipped wit
This paper, based on the tiny error rule (TER) in algebraic sum method, derived the criterion for correctly expressing errors with significant digit, for the first time. Then, according to the criterion, an important conclusion is further reached, n
Bayesian network is an effective uncertain knowledge representation and reasoning method. Fuzzy sets can be used for expressing fuzzy events or fuzzy objectives in some special region. Combining these two theories, this paper discusses the probabili
We introduce the Computation and Control Language (CCL), a guarded-command language for expressing systems wherein control and computation are inter- twined. A CCL program consists of a set of guarded commands that may update continuous or discrete
This study is aimed at eliminating the influence of the higher-order modes on the frequency response functions (FRFs) of non-proportionally viscously damped systems. Based on the Neumann expansion theorem, two power-series expansions in terms of eig
