  2. Binary Goppa code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Goppa_code

    Binary Goppa code. In mathematics and computer science, the binary Goppa code is an error-correcting code that belongs to the class of general Goppa codes originally described by Valerii Denisovich Goppa, but the binary structure gives it several mathematical advantages over non-binary variants, also providing a better fit for common usage in ...

  3. Compatibility of C and C++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_of_C_and_C++

    The C and C++ programming languages are closely related but have many significant differences. C++ began as a fork of an early, pre- standardized C, and was designed to be mostly source-and-link compatible with C compilers of the time. [ 1][ 2] Due to this, development tools for the two languages (such as IDEs and compilers) are often ...

    Practical implementations rely heavily on decoding the constituent SPC codes in parallel. LDPC codes were first introduced by Robert G. Gallager in his PhD thesis in 1960, but due to the computational effort in implementing encoder and decoder and the introduction of Reed–Solomon codes, they were mostly ignored until the 1990s.

  5. Hamming code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_code

    In mathematical terms, Hamming codes are a class of binary linear code. For each integer r ≥ 2 there is a code-word with block length n = 2r − 1 and message length k = 2r − r − 1. Hence the rate of Hamming codes is R = k / n = 1 − r / (2r − 1), which is the highest possible for codes with minimum distance of three (i.e., the minimal ...

    the use of simple arithmetic constants, e.g., in expressions such as circumference = 2 * Math.PI * radius, [1] or for calculating the discriminant of a quadratic equation as d = b^2 − 4*a*c; the use of powers of 10 to convert metric values (e.g. between grams and kilograms) or to calculate percentage and per mille values

  7. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    Binary-coded decimal (BCD) is a binary encoded representation of integer values that uses a 4-bit nibble to encode decimal digits. Four binary bits can encode up to 16 distinct values; but, in BCD-encoded numbers, only ten values in each nibble are legal, and encode the decimal digits zero, through nine. The remaining six values are illegal and ...

    RTL (C) Caller When returning struct/class, the calling code allocates space and passes a pointer to this space via a hidden parameter on the stack. The called function writes the return value to this address. Stack aligned on 16-byte boundary due to a bug. cdecl: Microsoft: RTL (C) Caller: When returning struct/class,

  9. Reed–Solomon error correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed–Solomon_error...

    By 1963 (or possibly earlier), J. J. Stone (and others) recognized that Reed Solomon codes could use the BCH scheme of using a fixed generator polynomial, making such codes a special class of BCH codes, [4] but Reed Solomon codes based on the original encoding scheme, are not a class of BCH codes, and depending on the set of evaluation points ...
