  2. Programmed input–output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmed_input–output

    Programmed input–output (also programmable input/output, programmed input/output, programmed I/O, PIO) is a method of data transmission, via input/output (I/O), between a central processing unit (CPU) and a peripheral device, [1] such as a Parallel ATA storage device. Each data item transfer is initiated by an instruction in the program ...

  3. Declarative programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declarative_programming

    Declarative programming is often defined as any style of programming that is not imperative. A number of other common definitions attempt to define it by simply contrasting it with imperative programming. For example: A high-level program that describes what a computation should perform.

  4. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Function_(computer_programming)

    In computer programming, a function (also procedure, method, subroutine, routine, or subprogram) is a callable unit [1] of software logic that has a well-defined interface and behavior and can be invoked multiple times.

  5. Parameter (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parameter_(computer...

    Output and input/output parameters prevent function composition, since the output is stored in variables, rather than in the value of an expression. Thus one must initially declare a variable, and then each step of a chain of functions must be a separate statement. For example, in C++ the following function composition:

  6. Low-level programming language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-level_programming_language

    Machine code is the form in which code that can be directly executed is stored on a computer. It consists of machine language instructions, stored in memory, that perform operations such as moving values in and out of memory locations, arithmetic and Boolean logic, and testing values and, based on the test, either executing the next instruction in memory or executing an instruction at another ...

  7. Common Gateway Interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface

    CGI programs precompiled to machine code, e.g. precompiled from C or C++ programs, rather than CGI programs executed by an interpreter, e.g. Perl, PHP or Python programs. Web server extensions such as Apache modules (e.g. mod_perl , mod_php and mod_python ), NSAPI plugins, and ISAPI plugins which allow long-running application processes ...

  8. Malbolge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malbolge

    Later, Lou Scheffer posted a cryptanalysis of Malbolge and provided a program to copy its input to its output. [4] He also saved the original interpreter and specification after the original site stopped functioning, and offered a general strategy of writing programs in Malbolge as well as some thoughts on its Turing completeness .

  9. Snippet (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snippet_(programming)

    Snippet is a programming term for a small region of re-usable source code, machine code, or text. Ordinarily, these are formally defined operative units to incorporate into larger programming modules. Snippet management is a feature of some text editors, program source code editors, IDEs, and related software. It allows the user to avoid ...
