    I was using computer languages long before Python was written. Like Cobal, Fortran, Lisp, Pascal.

    Actually my first take on Python is tepid at best. Always preferred compiled langues, like C.

    Ruby and Io look to me like probably better than Python.

    But my investigation is for broad ranging strategic over watch objectives, not for any striverist objectives.

    So the above does not really have references. It does use MASM, the Microsoft Assemlber. And this is fully integrated with the C compiler, for some interesting things.

    They show you how to use '_asm' and then a pair of curly braces to write inline assembler within a C program.

    To me this looks most interesting. But why? And whatever you do, aren't you taking a chance of screwing up what the compiler generates?

    Now you can also call stuff, I guess from the C-library. That is most useful, like printf.

    Okay, but for me I would say just write assembly routines, functions, and call them from C. No chance of screwing anything up, and that is the standard way.

    So talking about Intel and the 386. that was the turning point, the new 32 bit mode, unlike the 16 bit with 20 bit addressing mode which MS-DOS ran under.

    So still 4x main registers, a, b, c, d. And then a bunch of stack and pointer registers.

    so ah and al are 8 bits. ax is a 16 bit. And then eax is 32 bits.

    So a is the accumulator, often used for math. b often used for arrays and c for a loop counter, and d is for data.

    a -> accumulator
    b -> base
    c -> counter
    d -v data

    So this looks like a very powerful assembler and C/C++ compiler.

    Linker is 'ml'

    Can it do the 80 bit real numbers like the hardware supports? And how do the GNU offerings compare to this?

    Need to write special assembler stuff to do 80 bits?

    Introduction to 80x86 assembly language and computer architecture will be my next assembly language book.

    In hand now:
    Introduction to 80x86 assembly language and computer architecture / Richard C. Detmer (2010)

    A real good book. Explains everything very clearly. To me this is more of a trade school book than a university book. But if you want people to be able to make programs work, this is what they need.

    They use the Microsoft Visual suite. Generally I had been opposed to such, more a gimmick, a toy, than a tool. But no matter, now. It has gotten a lot better.

    So where as the previous book focused on something unusual, using Microsoft C and Assembler and being able to write Assembler inline, right inside of a C routine.

    I find this to be a dubious idea. Must need to spend a lot of time checking what comes out of the C compiler, before and after making such inline changes.

    But this current book talks about accepted practice, writing Assembler routines which can be called externally.

    They us the C calling convention, both to get it started and get into it, and for calling from Assembler to Assembler. The C argument order is the opposite of Pascal, and as I remember, Pascal is the same as Fortran.

    So really, Assembler should be fun. And in this book it is. I don't know if you can move from a memory address to a memory address without it first going into a CPU register. Most of the time you can't.

    But the original PC architecture included a DMA controler ( 8237 ? ) and the Interrupt Arbiter ( 8259 ?)

    The CPU does though have all four functions for binary arithmetic. And earlier CPUs did not have this. And the 2's complement and all is automatically taken care of.

    Now, most of the time the tough stuff with Assembler is the I/O. Here handled though, you just include 'io.h', really from the C runtime library. Then you can do Windows prompting and messaging. You can use anything from the C runtime.

    So the 386 with its special new mode is what brought 32 bit computing to the desk top. Just think about how many OP codes that allows for!

    It has a few special registers beyond what an 8086 had too.

    So many have agreed that the 386 was the turning point where now you could have on your desk top, something which in many ways was the rival of a mainframe.

    In my view, this has still not yet been taken advantage of. Too much use of real stupid commercial CAD programs, which are really just busy boxes.

    But with the Open Source Movement, things are changing.

    And Microsoft used to be a really bad actor. But today, facing for the first time competition that it cannot drive under, the Free Software Foundation, it has cleaned up its act. Its stuff today are useful tools, not appliances.

    So I guess Intel went to 64 bits with Pentium III, so I am told.

    But this book saves discussion of Floating Point for the last chapter. So the 80 bits is called Double Extended Precision.

    You can in the Assembler declare a variable as 'Real10'. I guess the C compiler allows this too. Used to not be so.

    So then there are op codes for the co-processor, all starting with the letter 'f'.

    I think if you don't have the co-processor, you can be calling stuff from the floating point library.

    The way it was during the DOS days was there were three ways.

    1. Standard, which was compromise and did spend time checking for the co-processor.
    2. (dot)alt, which was faster if you did not have the co-processor.
    3. (dot)87, which was steamlined and the fastest if you had the co-processor.

    I would just have a 'make.bat' which did all three linkings. Some would flag errors on numeric issues which the other two would ignore.

    If anyone has an example of something they have re-written in Assembler which is faster than what the C or Fortran compilers did, I would love to see it.

    As I see things, the main advantage of re-writing some floating point routines in Assembler would just be that it could be flatter. Less overhead of function calls and returns.

    Typical simulation programs are numerical solutions to matrices, with an independent variable. So they easily run into the millions of floating point operations, including the power serieses for transendentals. So you are into many minutes, hours and more. So by making flat code in assembler you could probably beat the compiler code and it would be worth the effort.

    And people who adapt compilers to new processors also need to know how to program the processor directly.

    The author explains that in Assembler you can make self modifying code, but this is considered extremely bad form.

    I agree. But I would not put that past those Apple guys and the McIntosh BIOS. Of course it would not be in the Read Only Memory, it would be in stuff which is copied from there to the Random Access Memory. With zillions of entry points and self modifying code, you can make something which will forever be impractical to reverse engineer. So you can be selling a dog shit cheap piece of hardware for a premium price because there is no legal way to clone it.

    So in hand now:
    The art of assembly language / by Randall Hyde, 2nd edition, 2010. 732 pages.

    So this book is blowing me away. Hyde has been writing about x86 assembly language since 1989. He wrote this huge MASM Bible.

    The current book is a re-write of a first edition 15 years back.

    So he is promoting, HLA ( High Level Assembler). It has a Pascal like syntax. I think Hide has a fondness for Pascal. It also has classes and objects and good control structures. It has its own outside libraries, not from the C library.

    The tough stuff in assembler is the I/O and the operating system. Not the registers and the memory.

    So, in HLA you always have full access to conventional low level assembler. Just easier, and easier to get started if you use their high level stuff.

    And in my opinion, much better than what MASM offers, being able to introduce assembler snippets right into a C program.

    HIDE is an IDE for HLA.

    HLA used to be Windows only, now it is also Linux, FreeBSD, and Max OS X.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-level…

    And he feels that it should be called a compiler instead of an assembler.

    To make the 8087 Floating Point Co-Processor, Intel hired 3 experts, Kahn, Coonan, and Stone.

    8087 has support for the following floating point transcendentals, 8 of them:
    sine,
    cosine,
    partial tangent,
    partial arctangent,
    2x-1,
    y*logbase2(x)
    y*logbase2(x+1)

    He says that algebraic identities can come up with everything else. ( I cannot vouch for that, or that this is the best way, but I still have much to learn )

    And then of the standard HLA math library, it also does, and we are assured that it is open source.

    So what is the difference between RISC and CISC? If anything is CISC it should be the Intel x86. But I read so much about them, not so bad.

    68000 and Sun Sparc were supposed to be RISC. And then the older processors, they had to be RISC, not that many transistors on board.

    okay now I understand. It is supposed to be less machine cycles per instruction, so it runs faster. But then the logic itself will tend to be more complex. And some RISC processors have as many instructions as an IBM 370

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_in…

    So mostly RISC runs faster, not simpler inside or simpler to program.

    Chicago: Police Shoot and Kill a Black On-Duty Security Guard

    "
    In the Chicago suburb of Midlothian, a black security officer was shot and killed by a white police officer Sunday as he was restraining a shooting suspect while on duty at a bar. Twenty-six-year-old Jemel Roberson reportedly grabbed and held a bar patron to the ground after the patron opened fire early Sunday morning. When police officers arrived on the scene, witnesses say Roberson was immediately shot, despite people at the bar screaming that he was a security guard. At the time, Roberson was armed and held a valid gun owner’s license. One patron who witnessed the killing said the cops “saw a black man with a gun, and basically killed him.” An autopsy Monday concluded that Roberson’s death was a homicide.

    Why physicists still use Fortran
    http://moreisdifferent.com/2015/07/16/wh…

    "
    Fortran is rarely used today in industry — one ranking ranks it behind 29 other languages. However, Fortran is still a dominant language for the large scale simulation of physical systems, ie. for things like the astrophysical modeling of stars and galaxies, hydrodynamics codes (cf. Flash), large scale molecular dynamics, electronic structure calculation codes (cf. SIESTA), large scale climate models, etc. In the field of high performance computing (HPC), of which large scale numerical simulation is a subset, there are only two languages in use today — C++ and “modern Fortran” (Fortran 90/95/03/08). The popular Open MPI libraries for parallelizing code were developed for these two languages. So basically, if you want fast code that an run on many processors, you are limited to these two options. Modern Fortran also has a feature called ‘coarrays‘ which puts parallelization features directly into the language. Coarrays started as an extension of Fortran 95 and were incorporated into Fortran 2008 standard.

    "large scale simulation of physical systems"

    This is of course becoming more and more common, trying to simulate things seen as impractical before, on account of advances in software to support parallel processing and because of advances in the hardware.

    "What I would like to explain is why Fortran is still used, and show that it is not merely because physicists are ‘behind the time’"


    "
    It is often said that the reason Fortran is still used is that it is fast. But is it the fastest? The website http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org allows for a comparison of several benchmarks between C and Fortran. On most of the benchmarks, Fortran and C++ are the fastest. Note that Python, which is the darling of computer scientists, is usually about 100 times slower, but that is the nature of interpreted code. Python is unsuited for heavy numerical computation but highly suited for many other things. Interestingly, C++ beats Fortran on all but two of the benchmarks, although they are fairly close on most. However, the two benchmarks where Fortran wins (n-body simulation and calculation of spectra) are the most physics-y. The results vary somewhat depending on whether one compares a single core or quad core machine with Fortran lagging a bit more behind C++ on the quad core. The benchmarks where Fortran is much slower than C++ involve processes where most of the time is spent reading and writing data, for which Fortran is known to be slow.

    So, altogether, C++ is just as fast as Fortran and often a bit faster. The question we really should be asking is “why do physics professors continue to advise their students to use Fortran rather than C++?”
    "

    "
    Given the long history of Fortran, it is no surprise that a large amount of legacy code in physics is written in Fortran. Physicists usually try to minimize the amount of coding they do, therefore, if legacy code exists they will use it. Even if old code is hard to read, poorly documented, and not the most efficient, it is often faster to use old validated code than to write new code.
    "

    Modern Data Science With R,

    talks about a new language I have never before heard of. 'Julia'.

    "
    Julia is a high-level general-purpose[12] dynamic programming language that was originally designed to address the needs of high-performance numerical analysis and computational science, without the typical need of separate compilation to be fast,[13][14][15][16] also usable for client and server web use,[17][18] low-level systems programming[19] or as a specification language.[20]

    Distinctive aspects of Julia's design include a type system with parametric polymorphism and types in a fully dynamic programming language and multiple dispatch as its core programming paradigm. It allows concurrent, parallel and distributed computing, and direct calling of C and Fortran libraries without glue code.

    Julia is garbage-collected,[21] uses eager evaluation and includes efficient libraries for floating-point calculations, linear algebra, random number generation, and regular expression matching. Many libraries are available, and some of them (e.g. for fast Fourier transforms) were previously bundled with Julia.[22]
    "

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_%28p…


    First appeared
    2012; 6 years ago[4]


    Stable release

    1.0.2[5] / 8 November 2018; 18 days ago

    "
    Work on Julia was started in 2009, by Jeff Bezanson, Stefan Karpinski, Viral B. Shah, and Alan Edelman, who set out to create a free language that was both high-level and fast. On 14 February 2012 the team launched a website with a blog post explaining the language's mission.[23] There is no official reason for the name "Julia".[24]

    Since the 2012 launch, the Julia community has grown, with over 2,000,000 downloads as of August 2018.[25] The JuliaCon[26] academic conference for Julia users and developers has been held annually since 2014.

    Version 0.3 was released in August 2014, version 0.4 in October 2015, and version 0.5 in October 2016.[27] Versions 0.5 and earlier are no longer maintained.[28] Julia 0.6 was released in June 2017,[29] and was the stable release version until 8 August 2018.

    Julia excels at numerical computing. Its syntax is great for math, many numeric datatypes are supported, and parallelism is available out of the box. Julia's multiple dispatch is a natural fit for defining number and array-like datatypes.

    Head First C
    by David and Dawn Griffiths

    Kind of a problematic book if you ask me.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/144939…

    But anyway, C has changed a bit.

    Originally no standards. Then ANSI C, now C99 and C11.

    As I read, you could always declare more variables anytime there is an open curly brace. Most people did not understand the benefits of this.

    So most only declared at the start of a function.

    Now
    1. Can declare an initialize anywhere, even in function calls.

    2. Seem to have moved from '->' for structure member access to '.' This is how the new languages usually do it.

    Book shows how to make JSON's, basically duples. Should have binary version, and can also do XML and binary versions.

    Anyway, I will be accessing many books about C and C++, both old and new.

    Microsoft C allows inline assembler, something I do not recommend.

    Head First C
    by David and Dawn Griffiths

    Unusual kind of book, but still useful.

    So using '.' to access members of structures is a new alternative to using '->' and '*', more like newer languages, and this kind of stuff is always confusing.

    This book explains how to make a Dynamic Link Library. First I have seen which does this. So using gcc you tell it -fPIC and some other stuff. Talks about how to do it on MinGW, Cygwin, Linux/Unix, Mac. And the suitable names are different for all of these.

    Not sure if these linkers still have code overlays. That would be nice. But all in all, Dynamic Linking is actually better.

    exec() library call from C gives more power than using system(), and there are multiple versions of exec()

    And you can get to the command line arguments and to the environment variables. ( All stuff I remember well )

    fork() will clone your process.

    ( this is all operating system stuff, not within your own app run )

    pipe() opens data streams

    The Header Files Being Used, all (dot)h

    stdio
    stdlib
    unistd
    time
    string
    errno
    signal
    math ( from my memory )
    netdb

    control-C works, uses SIGINT


    Talks about how to write both Internet Server and Client.

    How to create a socket for an IP Address.

    ( it is actually all of this OS stuff which has expanded, and is the more complex part of writing app, not the C-Langauge itself. )

    So people write about C having therads concurrency instead of actors. This is totally untrue. Nothing in the C language or run time library has ever supported concurrency. Rather, you can write any kind of concurrency stuff you want.

    So this book invokes POSIX thread library, and pthread.

    Use pthread on Cygwin, Linux, or Max

    'pthread.h'

    But you also need some traffic lights. So they talk about MUTEXES, mutually exclusive.

    'limits.h' has precomps for all the variable range limits.

    Aceunit, helps you test code.

    gcc compiler gives lots of options about code optimization, and about giving warnings if your code looks like it does strange stuff.

    So, want to go back to where it started for me with C:

    Kernighan, Brian W The C programming language (1978 pre-ansi version )

    and also this 1988 book at some point:

    The AWK programming language / Alfred V. Aho, Brian W. Kernighan, Peter J. Weinberger

    So also in:
    Head First C
    by David and Dawn Griffiths

    They talk about Union, another type of C structure where variable space is accessed by two different variable types.

    Interesting, and in C from the very start. But I have never used it and never seen it used.

    They also talk about a variable type Bit Field. I believe that this is new. Arbitrary length.

    So I assume that both of these features are really for hash tables.

    But the compiler and the machine might not actually be able to implement them efficiently, not more so than just using byte (char) variables, or even Long Integers ( 4 bytes ).

    So I assume that this gets used for Functional Programming. Maybe at the core of the Unix Kernel there is something like this.

    So did hard disks used to run at 3600 RPM, but now run at 7200 RPM?

    I thought I had heard of 40,000 MTBF as being a reasonable number, decades ago, and for 3600 RPM.

    What are the numbers now? Is an institution which leaves desktops running all night accelerating the failures?

    So computer hard disk reliability?

    https://www.frys.com/product/8713131;jse…
    6 Gb per second data rate. They want that because these new processors have so much parallelism, and they want it for media.

    But 7200 RPM, that is really spinning. Does this lower the MTBF?

    For a regular desktop PC, not used as a server, not having a backup hard disk, should you leave it on over night? Some people do. As I see it, this about triples the use hours.

    Pricing from Fry's is excellent.


    How about heat pipe cooling in computers,

    So what liquid. Talk about using copper and water. But to me, 100 deg C is too hot.

    Used to talk about Si junctions and channels going to 175 deg C. I think now people understand it has to be kept to 150 deg C. So how about Isopropyl Alcohol?

    Ammonia would never condense at room temperature. Could be legal issues over the safety of it. Ammonia refrigerators not longer legal in residences. Firefighters had been killed.

    In my view isopropyl alcohol getting out in a leak would be no big deal. Commonly used to clean electronics. But water would be a problem.
    82.6 deg C
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopropyl_…

    Suppose you vacuum down to 1/3 pressure, then water boils at 70 deg C. Big difference.

    So of this new language, Julia, it ( meaning the compiler ) is written in C/C++ and in Scheme ( a Lisp dialect ).

    So does this mean that your compiled program uses LISP reasoning? Or does it mean that the compiler itself uses LISPisms?

    Probably the latter. This I find both intriguing and concerning.

    About Functional Programming, as found in LISP and PROLOG, there are still various camps. Some go along with the special languages. Others think these are more of a hindrance. And so the other way then is to use Object Oriented Programming to create you Functional Programming space. I do not claim to know which is more true, but I tend to side with the latter view.

    So how many here have used Industrial PC's?

    Usually these have no fan and no moving hard disk. They are air tight. Good for more dirty environments. More resistant to vibrations.

    Some have Solid State Hard Drive, and these have limitations. Always trade offs. Some have had Bubble Memories.

    Not the thing to use as a server or a simulation engine. But basically as a terminal or for machine or building automation, great.

    How many have used these or even looked into them?

    Had such a wonderful reading system, to attain balance, worked for well over a year. But have to abandon it now, as I have taken on responsibilities which require me read certain things.

    Before I had planned to, I need to read about Php.

    First, is there any advantage to using Perl instead? How much different is Perl from AWK? And how much different from C-shell?

    Do most people today use C-shell as their default Unix Shell, or do they use something newer, or something older?

    Does Php allow extensions, I mean to the interpreter? But on most web servers you would not have the ability to use this?

    Perl allows some sorts of expansions, how does that work?

    So this is the main Php site?

    I'm not against acoustic guitar, its just that I like electric guitar music so much. And electric guitar can do things which acoustic guitar cannot. Needs to feel like you are there with them, not like it is just a contrived television show. Letting this finally be the psychedelia it was intended to be.

    So people seem to think that in Julia and in Rust they have something over C. What? And then I guess I need links and I need books too.

    Tried to explore this before, did not find much.

    Julia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_%28p…

    well definitely for numerical analysis, and they talk about lots of things, but to me not clear that those are necessary.

    Source Code
    https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia

    https://julialang.org/

    I had found zero books before:

    Julia quick syntax reference : a pocket guide for data science programming / Antonello Lobianco 2019

    Tanmay teaches Julia for beginners : a springboard to machine learning for all ages / Tanmay Bakshi 2020

    Think Julia : how to think like a computer scientist / Ben Lauwens and Allen B. Downey (O'Reilly 2019, their books are ALWAYS GOOD, so this is where I will start.)

    Rust

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_(prog…

    https://github.com/rust-lang

    https://www.rust-lang.org/

    There are actually a lot of books about Rust now, and they are circulating.

    Multicore ARM Processors may have 4 cores, but there are integer. They just have one floating point unit.

    Maybe the Intel x86 multi-core processors do have multiple floating point units.

    How about boards with multiple CPU chips?

    ^^^^^ FunLoving, Shut The Fuck Up! You are the one posting negative meta-narratives, you and a few other circle jerkers.

    With most of the threads I have started, there are already people on this forum who know as much as I do about these topics, and some of them probably know more.

    And then if you extend the set of persons considered to those who might patronize strip clubs once every few years, then there are certainly people who know more about these matters than I do. There are people who could contribute a great deal.

    It is you FLF and a clique of other circle jerkers who intimidate people off of this board, and keep the pool of people and the range of discussions narrow. I have seen people post more broadly topical and interesting stuff, but they get ignored, if not dumped on.

    So FLF, go fuck yourself.

    *******************************
    Thinking about MATLAB and their approach to parallel processing, I have always been favorably disposed to how they do things. It is just expensive, and also like all software companies, their stuff is built on realities which become out of date over the many decades.

    Making a special kind of for loop, which farms things out to various processors, is clever.

    In an expandable interpretive language you could add that.

    In C, there is per-compilation processing. And then you could add your own. You could make it so that you compose your source code in a database, and then programs prepare the actual files to compile. Many potential benefits in that.

    So this altered for loop in no longer an inline compilation. It is a function call. Then each of the three expressions and the loop body become functions, access by their pointers. And this new loop being a function, in there it figures out how to farm iterations out to various processor cores.

    I find this really intriguing.

    How to do numerical analysis with multiple processors has long been a challenge. But it can be so easy and so low cost to have that, that it has to be done.

    And then the GUI operating systems, like Windows, soak up so much processor power, that you would want to have external boxes to do this.

    Not all for loops are like their example, integer indexing. Some are moving through linked lists, some could have floating point conditions. Some could be multi-dimensional moving through nodes. But as the code developer you can make the decision about doing it this way. And you can start with simple for and see if you get the same answer.
