fscanf has to parse and execute the format string. It might be interesting to compare your custom ascii-to-float converter to one which calls strtof in a loop.
The only thing you can begin to understand by reading glibc is the terrible genius of Ulrich Drepper.
I had a similar question to this once, and what I mainly found out was that FreeBSD's (and thus OSX's) libc is much, much, more readable than glibc.
Atom from back then really did suck, though. In-order, etc. This thing has one of the newer Qualcomm ARM cores, which are reasonably wide out-of-order.
Yeah, this is basically my point. You're more likely to find Harry's kind of silliness among CS people than math people.
Real math majors find all this weird category-theoretic jargon in programming pretty dumb. Just so you know.
In C, there is no stack.
Well, at least I'm not the only one who took your post literally. The argument is interesting. I feel like the reason it's overlooked might be a realization that once you have to make such an argument, all is lost, evil…
Which is exactly the unfuriating thing.
I find it infuriating that his argument against facebook spying isn't "this is wrong", but "we will have to hire dead weight, and could be exposed to legal liability." I of course don't mean to criticize the author…
The traditional student is better educated. Presumably (s)he is motivated and interested in certain classes too. The difference is the computer student avoids doing anything (s)he doesn't feel like doing. Living…
Summary: they don't want to; there's no good in it for them. Why is Apple doing this, then? The article suggests high profit margins. I think it has more to do with the lack of Broadway one man shows about Dell's or…
If you're dead-set on publishing a lengthy article about somebody's private business, it at least behooves you to spend some time on it. You even managed to get his name wrong. It is simply not true that the article is…
This seems like a bad idea. There are (or at least used to be) a couple of rants about his doctors on his website, so it's clear he's getting treatment of some variety. There's also a reference to his parents, who…
