Is this tail recursion?

假装没事ソ 提交于 2019-12-10 17:08:02
问题 I have tried to find examples of tail recursion and I really don't see the difference between regular and tail. If this isn't tail recursion, can someone tell me why its not? public static long fib(long index) { // assume index >= 0 if (index == 0) // Base case return 0; else if (index == 1) // Base case return 1; else // Reduction and recursive calls return fib(index - 1) + fib(index - 2); } // end of method fib(long index) 回答1: No, the method in the question does not use a tail recursion. A

Endianness, “Most Significant”, and “Least Significant”

北城余情 提交于 2019-12-10 13:14:55
问题 I've read descriptions online describing big and little endian. However, they all seem to basically read the same way and I am still confused on the the actual implementation regarding "most" and "least" significant bytes. I understand that little endian values evaluate the "least significant" values first and under big endian the "most significant" bytes are evaluated first. However, I'm unclear as to the meaning of "most" and "least" significant. I think it would help me to understand if I

Is there a relationship between Database Tables and Object Oriented Classes?

问题 Every time I program I recognize this relationship between classes and tables, or am I imagining it. You can have a class per database table or a table per class i.e. : tables: customer, products, order. classes: customer, products, order, may have methods such as addRecord, deleteRecord, updateRecord. what is this called? Object-Relational? I am not a DBA. 回答1: It all depends on the type of database you're using. If you're using an object oriented database (OODB), then there is no

In RAFT is it possible to have a majority consensus on a log entry but the entry is not committed?

妖精的绣舞 提交于 2019-12-10 09:52:25
问题 Consider this simulation in the official raft webpage Why is term 2 index 1 not committed despite S2 (leader) , S3 and S4 agreeing on the log? I run this multiple minutes to make sure all communication has taken place. Weirdly enough, if I add one more log entry term 6 index 2 then term 2 index 1 will be committed. Does anyone know what is the rule that is preventing term 2 index 1 to be committed? 回答1: Your leader is in term 6, but none of the log entries are from term 6; this invokes a

Dependencies Tree Implementation

问题 For those who used apt-get, you know that everytime you install / uninstall something, you get the notificatons saying you need / no longer need certain dependencies. I'm trying to understand the theory behinds this and potentially implement my own version of this. I've done some googling, came up with mostly coupling stuff. From what I understand, coupling is 2 classes/modules that depends on each other. This is not exactly what I'm looking for. What I'm looking for is more like a

how to obtain a single channel value image from HSV image in opencv 2.1?

你。 提交于 2019-12-09 16:11:50
问题 I am a beginner in opencv. I am using opencv v2.1. I have converted an RGB image to HSV image. Now I want to obtain single channels Hue, Value and Saturation separately. What should I do? I have seen similar questions here but No-one answered that. Kindly help. 回答1: You can access the same way you were accessing for RGB image where 1st channel will be for H, 2nd channel for S and 3rd channel for V. If you are using OpenCV 2.1, you must be using IplImage then, right? like if your HSV image is

P != NP question

不问归期 提交于 2019-12-09 15:18:22
问题 Not a 'pure' programming question, but since it is deeply involved in programming theory, I thought it best to ask here. Regarding the P NP problem, this excerpt from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem : "In essence, the question P = NP? asks: Suppose that yes answers to a yes or no question can be verified quickly. Then, can the answers themselves also be computed quickly?" I am left wondering, how is the speed of verifying an answer related to the speed of generating a

What is a “set” in C++? When are they useful?

淺唱寂寞╮ 提交于 2019-12-09 13:10:59
问题 I'm having a hard time conceptualizing c++ sets, actually sets in general. What are they? How are they useful? 回答1: Don't feel bad if you have trouble understanding sets in general. Most of a degree in mathematics is spent coming to terms with set theory: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_theory Think of a set as a collection of unique, unordered objects. In many ways it looks like a list: { 1, 2, 3, 4 } but order is unimportant: { 4, 3, 2, 1} = { 1, 2, 3, 4} and repetitions are ignored: { 1,
