What is object slicing in C++ or Java?
Object slicing is used to describe the situation when you assign an object of a derived class to an instance of a base class. This causes a loss of methods and member variables for the derived class object. This is termed as information being sliced away. For example, class Foo { int a; }; class Bar : public Foo { int b; }; Since Bar extends Foo, it now has 2 member variables, a and b. So if you create a variable bar of type Bar and then create ...
Read MoreDifference between undefined, unspecified, and implementation-defined behavior in C and C++?
Undefined behavior is simply behavior that is not defined by the C++ specification. For example, if you have multiple unary increment/decrement operations in an expression like i++ + ++i, they result in behavior that is not defined. This is simply due to the fact that some language constructs are syntactically valid but you can't predict the behavior when the code is run. Another example is the expression: u = (u++);Implementation-defined behavior is behavior unspecified by the specification and left for the implementor to decide and document how the choice is made. In this case, the choice that is made must ...
Read MoreThe auto storage class in C++
In C, The auto storage class specifier lets you explicitly declare a variable with automatic storage. The auto storage class is the default for variables declared inside a block. A variable x that has automatic storage is deleted when the block in which x was declared exits.You can only apply the auto storage class specifier to names of variables declared in a block or to names of function parameters. However, these names by default have automatic storage. Therefore the storage class specifier auto is usually redundant in a data declaration.It was initially carried over to C++ for syntactical compatibility only, ...
Read MoreWhy there is not do...while loop in Python?
PEP 315 (Python Enhancement Proposal) to include do..while statement has been rejected because it doen't fit in the general format of indented block statement: indented block used by every other Python compound statement. In words of Guido Van Rossum - "Please reject the PEP. More variations along these lines won't make the language more elegant or easier to learn. They'd just save a few hasty folks some typing while making others who have to read/maintain their code wonder what it means".
Read MoreWhat is the max length of a Python string?
With a 64-bit Python installation, and 64 GB of memory, a Python 2 string of around 63 GB should be quite feasible. If you can upgrade your memory much beyond that, your maximum feasible strings should get proportionally longer. But this comes with a hit to the runtimes.With a typical 32-bit Python installation, of course, the total memory you can use in your application is limited to something like 2 or 3 GB (depending on OS and configuration), so the longest strings you can use will be much smaller than in 64-bit installations with very high amounts of RAM.
Read MoreIs it possible to use Python modules in Octave?
There is no straightforward way to do this. But it is possible to run a Python program and parse the output. You can execute any shell command using the function system (cmd, flag). The second argument is optional. If it is present, the output of the command is returned by system as a string. If it is not supplied, any output from the command is printed, with the standard output filtered through the pager. For example,output = system ("python /path/to/your/python/script.py", 1)
Read MoreHow to use Python modules over Paramiko (SSH)?
You connect and use a python module on the remote computer over SSH, as SSH only provides limited functionality so calling the module isn't possible.You can call a script on the remote server and run that as a way of getting around this problem. To get a result from the script, you can look at it by reading the lines from stdout if you're logging your result. Alternatively, you can write the result to a file and then read the file once the result has been generated and written to the file.If you want to do this over the network ...
Read MoreHow to prohibit a Python module from calling other modules?
You can use "Sandboxed Python". A "Sandboxed Python" would let you permit or forbid modules, limit execution slices, permit or deny network traffic, constrain filesystem access to a particular directory (floated as "/"), and so on. It is also referred to as RestrictedExecution. There are many ways to implement sandboxing on Python. You could Modify the CPython Runtime, Use Another Runtime, Use Operating System Support, etc to implement such a sandbox. You can read more about sandboxing at: https://wiki.python.org/moin/SandboxedPythonPypi has a package called RestrictedPython(https://pypi.python.org/pypi/RestrictedPython) that is a defined subset of the Python language which allows to provide a program input ...
Read MoreDo recursive functions in Python create a new namespace each time the function calls itself?
Yes, a function call (any function call, not just recursive ones) creates a new namespace. BUT, when given as parameters, OBJECTS are passed by reference.So, the new namespace get its own copy of this reference but it still refers to the same object as in the calling function, and if you change the content of that object, you will notice the change in the calling function.To be more specific, Whenever the Interpreter encounters a call to a function, its creates a frame object, which is pushed to a frame stack. Each time a frame is created, that frame is given ...
Read MoreWhat is the difference between Object oriented programming and Object based programming?
Many of us have a misconception that Java script is an object oriented language. But, the truth is Java Script is an Object Based Language. Object Based languages are different from Object Oriented Languages: Object Based Languages Object based languages supports the usage of object and encapsulation. They does not support inheritance or, polymorphism or, both. Object based languages does not supports built-in objects. Javascript, VB are the examples of object bases languages. Object Oriented Languages Object Oriented Languages supports all the features of Oops including inheritance and polymorphism. They support built-in objects. C#, Java, VB. Net ...
