  Understanding an interesting JavaScript map function question

With the evolvement of JavaScript, lots of new features have been added this old but robust language.  Among them are lots of functional programming language related functions like map, filter, each etc. In this post, we will cover one function map and its interesting behavior. Before dive into the details, let first take an example, do you know the output of below function call? ['1', '7', '11'].map(parseInt) You may think that it's easy and the output would be [1, 7, 11] Can you try to ru...

  Name resolution order in JavaScript

To understand what value a variable has in JavaScript, we need to understand some concepts such as scope and name resolution order. JavaScript has two scopes; one is program level and the other one is function level. Unlike in C,C++ or Java, JavaScript has no block level scope. So a variable defined in a if block will still be available outside. For example, the below example: var foo = 1; function bar() { if (true) { var foo = 10; } alert(foo); } bar(); The alert will display 10 since the ...

  Exit main thread and keep other threads running in C

In C programming, if using return in main function, the whole process will terminate. To only let main thread gone, and keep other threads live, you can use thrd_exit in main function. Check following code: #include #include #include int print_thread(void *s) { thrd_detach(thrd_current()); for (size_t i = 0; i < 5; i++) { sleep(1); printf("i=%zu\n", i); } thrd_exit(0); } int main(void) { ...

  How Many C Programs Are There?

If I choose a size S, can you tell me how many valid C programs exist that are no larger than that size? I’m actually interested in the answer — it’ll help me make a point in a paper I’m writing. Shockingly, the Internet (or at least, the part of it that I looked at based on a few searches) does not provide a good answer. Let’s start with a few premises: Since it would be exceedingly difficult to construct the exact answer, we’re looking for a respe...
