  Do we need other languages other than C and C++?

There were hundreds of or thousands of programming languages created since the invention of computer. All these languages have the same target which is to make the computer do what we want it do. So we may find that many languages have the same functions, i.e, one task can be completed by one language can be completed by another language as well. Now we may wonder why we need so many different languages. Can we just have C or C++ since they provide the best performance we need. The answer obviou...

  Do you have this kind of comments in your source code?

There is some famous saying that bad comment is worth than no comment. Usually your code will be maintained by other people, if you provide them some difficult to understand or misguided comments, this will be nightmare to them. While at some other time, programmers may put some funny comments in their codes which may make others laugh. Today we...

  Behavior of defer function in named return function

In Go, there is a special concept of named return value in function where a returned value can have name. For example, below is a named function in Go. func returnNamed() (i int) { i = 1 return } When the function returns, the return value i will have a value of 1.  Also, Go has a concept of defer which will execute a function just before the calling function exits. This is similar to what finally block does in other languages such as Java. For example, a defer function can be func deferF...

  static nested and non-static nested class in Java

Nested classes are divided into two categories: static and non-static(inner). Nested classes that are declared static are simply called static nested classes. Non-static nested classes are called inner classes. Static class can be defined as : class OuterClass{ static class StaticNestedClass{ //OTHER STUFF } } Static nested classes are accessed using the enclosing class name: OuterClass.StaticNestedClass For example, to create an object for the static nested class, use this synta...

  Google released a visual programming language Blockly

Google released a visual programming language Google Blockly, similar to the children programming language Scratch developed by MIT. You can build an application using some graphic objects, this is like playing LEGO toys. Eveny graphic object is a code block,  you can integrate them together to create simple functions, then you can combine some simple functions together to build a complete application. Users can drag blocks together to build an application. No typing required.This project...

Make the execution environment more secure Improve interpret efficiency and increase the execution speed Build foundation for future JavaScript versi...
