Dynamic programming algorithms are a good place to start understanding what's really going on inside computational biology software. The heart of many well-known programs is a dynamic programming ...

I recently presented arguments for and against using dynamic memory allocation in C and C++ programs. 1 I do agree that truly safety-critical systems should avoid using dynamic allocation because the ...

In C and C++, it can be very convenient to allocate and de-allocate blocks of memory as and when needed. This is certainly standard practice in both languages and almost unavoidable in C++. However, ...

A language that requires less rigid coding on the part of the programmer. It typically features "dynamic typing," which gives the programmer more freedom to pass parameters at runtime without having ...
