Which is faster between C++ and C#?
C++ is a middle-level language. It was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979. It is just an enhancement to C language and an object-oriented language. C# is modern and object-oriented language developed by Anders Hejlsberg. It is a part of the .NET framework. It is designed for Common Language Infrastructure (CLI). It is also a popular language. Difference between C++ and C# Both languages are object-oriented languages. C++ has low level of abstraction while C# has high level of abstraction. In C++, the program can be coded for any platform while in C#, the program is targeted towards windows ...
Read MoreAccess to the Shadow Password Database in Python
To access the UNIX shadow password database, we should use the spwd module. We need enough privileges to access this file. The shadow password database entries are like tuple like object. To use the spwd module, we should import it using − import spwd The attributes of the shadow password database are − Index Attribute & Description 0 sp_nam The Login Name or the username of the user 1 sp_pwd The Encrypted password 2 sp_lstchg Date of last change 3 sp_min Minimal number of days ...
Read MoreInstruction type DCR R in 8085 Microprocessor
In 8085 Instruction set, DCR is a mnemonic, which stands for ‘DeCRement’ and ‘R’ stands for any of the following registers, or memory location M pointed by HL pair. R = A, B, C, D, E, H, L, or M This instruction is used to decrease the content of register R. Also we can say it will subtract 1 from the register R content. And the decremented value will be stored on to the register R itself. As it is an arithmetic instruction, so all flags, except Cy flag, are affected depending on the result. In those assembly ...
Read MorePython Function to Check UNIX Passwords
To verify UNIX password, we should use the crypt module. It has crypt(3) routine. It is basically one-way hash function based on the modified DES algorithm. To use the crypt module, we should import it using. import crypt Method crypt.crypt(word, salt) This method takes two arguments. The first one is the word and second one is salt. The word is basically the user password, which is given in the prompt. The salt is a random string. It is used to perturb the DES Algorithm in one of 4096 ways. The salt contains only Upper-case, Lower-case, Numeric values ...
Read MoreTerminal Control Functions in Python
To change the terminal controls in the Unix system, we can use the tty related methods in Python. Using the tty module, we can set two different modes of the terminal. The raw Mode and the cbreak mode. To use the tty module, we should import it using − import tty There are some modules of the tty module, these are − Method tty.setraw(fd, when = termios.TCSAFLUSH) This method is used to change the terminal mode to raw mode. In the raw mode, the cursor moves to new line but the carriage return operation is not performed. Also ...
Read MoreInstruction type SBB R in 8085 Microprocessor
In 8085 Instruction set, SBB R is mnemonic used for multi-Byte subtraction. Let us consider the following example on such subtraction In this above example, the subtraction of 62H and F1H will result in 71H with a borrow of 1. Next, we have to subtract 44H and 13H along with this borrow value of 1. In the above tracing we have shown you how the internal calculations are being done. Now in 8085, to facilitate such an operation, SBB instruction has been provided to subtract two numbers along with the borrow value. SBB is a mnemonic that stands for ...
Read MorePseudo-terminal Utilities in Python
The Pseudo-terminal utility module pty is defined to handle pseudo-terminal concepts. Using this we can start another process, and also can read or write from controlling terminal using programs. This module is highly platform oriented. We should use UNIX systems to perform these operations. To use the pty module, we should import it using − import pty There are some modules of the pty module, these are − Method pty.fork() This method is used to connect the child controlling terminal to pseudo-terminal. This method returns the pid and the fd. The child process gets the pid 0, but ...
Read MorePython program to convert an array to an ordinary list with the same items
The array is given. Our task is to convert an array to an ordinary list. We solve this problem with the help of tolist() function. This function return the array as a (possibly nested) list. Algorithm Step 1: Given an array. Step 2: convert the array to a list using tolist() function. Step 3: Display list Example Code #Python program to convert an array to an ordinary #list with the same items from array import * def arraytolist(A): lst = A.tolist() # list print("The List Is ::>",lst) # Driver code A= array('i', [20,30,60]) # array arraytolist(A) Output The List Is ::> [20, 30, 60] The List Is ::> [20, 30, 60]
Read MoreInstruction type INX rp in 8085 Microprocessor
In 8085 Instruction set, INX is a mnemonic that stands for “INcrementeXtended register” and rp stands for register pair. And it can be any one of the following register pairs. rp = BC, DE, or HL This instruction will be used to add 1 to the present content of the rp. And thus the result of the incremented content will remain stored in rp itself. Though it is an arithmetic instruction, note that, flag bits are not at all affected by the execution of this instruction. A register pair is generally used to store 16-bit memory address. If ...
Read MoreInplace operator in Python
Definition - In-place operation is an operation that changes directly the content of a given linear algebra, vector, matrices(Tensor) without making a copy. The operators which helps to do the operation is called in-place operator. Eg: a+= b is equivalent to a= operator.iadd(a, b) There are some operators are used for In-place operation. iadd() This function is used to assign the current value and add them. This operator does x+=y operation. In case of strings, numbers assigning is not performed. Example a =operator.iadd(1, 3); print ("The result after adding : ", end="") print(a) Output ...
