Answer set programming ( ASP) is a form of declarative programming oriented towards difficult (primarily NP-hard) search problems. It is based on the stable model (answer set) semantics of logic programming. In ASP, search problems are reduced to computing stable models, and answer set solvers —programs for generating stable models—are used ...
The C standard library or libc is the standard library for the C programming language, as specified in the ISO C standard. [1] Starting from the original ANSI C standard, it was developed at the same time as the C library POSIX specification, which is a superset of it. [2] [3] Since ANSI C was adopted by the International Organization for ...

C ( pronounced / ˈsiː / – like the letter c) [6] is a general-purpose programming language. It was created in the 1970s by Dennis Ritchie and remains very widely used and influential. By design, C's features cleanly reflect the capabilities of the targeted CPUs. It has found lasting use in operating systems code (especially in kernels [7 ...
In programming languages, a closure, also lexical closure or function closure, is a technique for implementing lexically scoped name binding in a language with first-class functions. Operationally, a closure is a record storing a function [a] together with an environment. [1] The environment is a mapping associating each free variable of the ...
In computer programming, a magic number is any of the following: A unique value with unexplained meaning or multiple occurrences which could (preferably) be replaced with a named constant. A constant numerical or text value used to identify a file format or protocol (for files, see List of file signatures)
The C programming language manages memory statically, automatically, or dynamically. Static-duration variables are allocated in main memory, usually along with the executable code of the program, and persist for the lifetime of the program; automatic-duration variables are allocated on the stack and come and go as functions are called and return.
The C Programming Language (sometimes termed K&R, after its authors' initials) is a computer programming book written by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, the latter of whom originally designed and implemented the C programming language, as well as co-designed the Unix operating system with which development of the language was closely intertwined.
