The Archive of Interesting Code is an (ambitious) effort on my part to research, intuit, and code up every interesting algorithm and data structure ever invented. In doing so, I hope both to learn the mathematical techniques that power these technologies and to improve my skills as a programmer. The examples on this site are in a variety of languages. I generally prefer to use C++ for algorithms, since the STL provides a great framework for expressing algorithms that work on a variety of data types. I code up most data structures in Java, both because the Collections framework allows them to be integrated in seamlessly with other applications and because automatic garbage collection simplifies some of the resource management. Every now and then I'll find an algorithm or data structure that is best represented in a different language like Haskell, in which case I'll forgo my usual language conventions.

JSON, short for JavaScript Object Notation, is a lightweight computer data interchange format. It is a text-based, human-readable format for representing simple data structures and associative arrays (called objects). This example illustrates how to declare a JSON Contact structure.

« I frequently see bare queries from programmers in discussion forums, especially from new programmers, who are worried about performance. These worries often stem from popular notions about what operations are "slow." Division. Square roots. Mispredicted branches. Cache unfriendly data structures. »

Gellan gum is also known as Kaike gum and Jielan gum. The main components are glucose, glucuronic acid and rhamnose in a ratio of 2:1:1, and four monosaccharides are linear polysaccharides composed of repeating structural units. There are acetyl and glyceric acid groups in the natural high acetyl structure, they are all located on the same glucose group, and on average, each repeating structure has a glyceric acid group, and every two repeating structures has an acetyl group. After being saponified with KOH, it is transformed into low acetyl gellan gum. The glucuronic acid group can be neutralized by potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium salts. It also contains a small amount of nitrogen produced during fermentation production.

« The core of STXXL is an implementation of the C++ standard template library STL for external memory (out-of-core) computations, i. e., STXXL implements containers and algorithms that can process huge volumes of data that only fit on disks. »

M seems to be like LINQ for data structure generation: a simple template language with assemblers for different back-end technologies.

The Microsoft code name "M" language is a declarative language for working with data and building domain models. "M" lets users write down how they want to structure and query their data using a textual syntax that is convenient to both author and reader.

« Cache-oblivious algorithms take into account something that has been ignored in all the lectures so far, particularly, the multilevel memory hierarchy of modern computers. Retrieving items from various levels of memory and cache make up a dominant factor of running time, so for speed it is crucial to minimize these costs. The main idea of cache-oblivious algorithms is to achieve optimal use of caches on all levels of a memory hierarchy without knowledge of their size. »

It's been an extended time since we covered one among the foremost fundamental building blocks of SEO-the structure of domain names and URLs-and i feel it's time to revisit. But, a crucial caveat before we begin: the optimal structures and practices i will be describing within the tips below aren't absolutely critical on any/every page you create.

Using LESS to Create Twenty Twelve Child Theme We are going to be creating a child theme for the default Twenty Twelve theme. For those of you who are unfamiliar with creating child themes, the only thing we need to create a child theme is a style.css file. For more info, visit the WordPress Codex...............

Today's front-end developers don't just need to understand how to write CSS, we need to know how to write it efficiently. And what "efficiently" means can depend on your project and environment. Perhaps you have a team with several members working in the CSS and you need an efficient way to work together. Or maybe you have a huge enterprise site and you need your CSS optimized for speed. You could even be working with a legacy system that restricts access to HTML, which means you need efficient selectors to effectively style elements without ids or classes. You might even face all these situations and more.

Fortunately, it does not have to be too difficult to sell an annuity today. However, you do have to take the time to make sure that you are working with a company that has a good reputation in the business

Asp.net is an open source server-side Web program structure developed for Web growth to generate powerful websites.

Describes all of the GoF patterns (Creational / Structural / Behavioral) using 2 UML diagrams: One presenting the pattern, one for an example. There's not a lot of verbal description though.

Traits are a simple composition mechanism for structuring object-oriented programs. A Trait is essentially a parameterized set of methods; it serves as a behavioral building block for classes and is the primitive unit of code reuse. With Traits, classes are still organized in a single inheritance hierarchy, but they can make use of Traits to specify the incremental difference in behavior with respect to their superclasses. Unlike mixins and multiple inheritance, Traits do not employ inheritance as the composition operator. Instead, Trait composition is based on a set of composition operators that are complementary to single inheritance and result in better composition properties.

NDepend is a tool that simplifies managing a complex .NET code base. Architects and developers can analyze code structure, specify design rules, plan massive refactoring, do effective code reviews and master evolution by comparing different versions of the code.

« While much attention has been focused on high-level software architectural patterns, what is, in effect, the de-facto standard software architecture is seldom discussed. This paper examines this most frequently deployed of software architectures: the BIG BALL OF MUD. A BIG BALL OF MUD is a casually, even haphazardly, structured system. Its organization, if one can call it that, is dictated more by expediency than design. Yet, its enduring popularity cannot merely be indicative of a general disregard for architecture. »
