9 snowclone, noun clichéd wording used as a template, typically originating in a single quote e.g., "X considered harmful", "These aren't the Xs you're looking for", "X is the new Y", "It's X, but not as we know it", "No X left behind", "It's Xs all the way down", "All your X are belong to us"

This code forms some sort of argument in that debate, but I'm not sure whether it's for or against. Tom Duff

15 Earliest informal standard set by 1 st edition of The C Programming Language First de jure standard, included properly typed function declarations (function prototypes), const, better i18n support First international standard basically C89 rebadged Significant update with new language and library features, including better IEEE 754 support, compound literals and portable data types Support for threading, type-generic expressions and safer bounds-checking library functions

32 Signed magnitude A sign bit, 0 for + and 1 for, is followed by the bits representing the integer's magnitude
33 One's complement Negative integers are represented as the bitwise complement of the corresponding positive integer, i.e., i is equivalent to ~i
34 Two's complement Negative integers are represented 1 plus as the bitwise complement of the corresponding positive integer, i.e., i is equivalent to ~i + 1, which is the same as saying that it is the complement with respect to 2 N

44 Extra, Extra - Read All About It: Nearly All Binary Searches and Mergesorts are Broken Joshua Bloch
45 I was shocked to learn that the binary search program that Bentley proved correct and subsequently tested in Chapter 5 of Programming Pearls contains a bug.
46 Lest you think I'm picking on Bentley, let me tell you how I discovered the bug: The version of binary search that I wrote for the JDK contained the same bug.

64 Floating-Point Numbers Aren't Real Chuck Allison
65 Real numbers have infinite precision and are therefore continuous and nonlossy; floating-point numbers have limited precision, so they are finite, and they resemble "badly behaved" integers, because they re not evenly spaced throughout their range. Chuck Allison
66 It should go without saying that you shouldn't use floating-point numbers for financial applications that's what decimal classes in languages like Python and C# are for. Chuck Allison

101 Simple Testing Can Prevent Most Critical Failures An Analysis of Production Failures in Distributed Data-Intensive Systems
102 A majority of the production failures (77%) can be reproduced by a unit test.
103 network code() { switch (line) { case THING1: doit1(); break; case THING2: if (x == STUFF) { do_first_stuff(); if (y == OTHER_STUFF) break; do_later_stuff(); } /* coder meant to break to here... */ initialize_modes_pointer(); break; default: processing(); } /*...but actually broke to here! */ use_modes_pointer(); /* leaving the modes_pointer uninitialized */ } Peter van der Linden Expert C Programming
104 if ((err = ReadyHash(&SSLHashSHA1, &hashctx))!= 0) goto fail; if ((err = SSLHashSHA1.update(&hashCtx, &clientrandom))!= 0) goto fail; if ((err = SSLHashSHA1.update(&hashCtx, &serverrandom))!= 0) goto fail; if ((err = SSLHashSHA1.update(&hashCtx, &signedparams))!= 0) goto fail; goto fail; if ((err = SSLHashSHA1.final(&hashCtx, &hashout))!= 0) goto fail; Mike Bland "Goto Fail, Heartbleed, and Unit Testing Culture"
105 Goto Fail, Heartbleed, and Unit Testing Culture Mike Bland
106 These bugs are as instructive as they were devastating: They were rooted in the same programmer optimism, overconfidence, and haste that strike projects of all sizes and domains. Mike Bland
107 These bugs arouse my passion because I've seen and lived the benefits of unit testing, and this strongly-imprinted experience compels me to reflect on how unit testing approaches could prevent defects as highimpact and high-profile as these SSL bugs. Mike Bland
108
109 Test-Driven Development is not a testing technique, although you do write a lot of valuable automated tests. It is a way to solve programming problems. It helps software developers make good design decisions. Tests provide a clear warning when the solution takes a wrong path or breaks some forgotten constraint. Tests capture the production code s desired behavior.
110 TDD is fun! It s like a game where you navigate a maze of technical decisions that lead to highly robust software while avoiding the quagmire of long debug sessions. With each test there is a renewed sense of accomplishment and clear progress toward the goal. Automated tests record assumptions, capture decisions, and free the mind to focus on the next challenge.
111 TDD is fun!
