  2. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    Binary-coded decimal (BCD) is a binary encoded representation of integer values that uses a 4-bit nibble to encode decimal digits. Four binary bits can encode up to 16 distinct values; but, in BCD-encoded numbers, only ten values in each nibble are legal, and encode the decimal digits zero, through nine. The remaining six values are illegal and ...

  3. Binary translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translation

    A translator using static binary translation aims to convert all of the code of an executable file into code that runs on the target architecture without having to run the code first, as is done in dynamic binary translation. This is very difficult to do correctly, since not all the code can be discovered by the translator.

  4. Rosetta (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_(software)

    Binary translation, emulation. Rosetta is a dynamic binary translator developed by Apple Inc. for macOS, an application compatibility layer between different instruction set architectures. It enables a transition to newer hardware, by automatically translating software. The name is a reference to the Rosetta Stone, the artifact which enabled ...

  5. Assembly language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_language

    The binary code for this instruction is 10110 followed by a 3-bit identifier for which register to use. The identifier for the AL register is 000, so the following machine code loads the AL register with the data 01100001. [24] 10110000 01100001 This binary computer code can be made more human-readable by expressing it in hexadecimal as follows ...

  6. Arecibo message - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_message

    Arecibo message. This is a demonstration of the message with color added to highlight its separate parts. The binary transmission sent carried no color information. The Arecibo message is an interstellar radio message carrying basic information about humanity and Earth that was sent to the globular cluster Messier 13 in 1974.

  7. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    MSVC. v. t. e. In computing, just-in-time ( JIT) compilation (also dynamic translation or run-time compilations) [1] is compilation (of computer code) during execution of a program (at run time) rather than before execution. [2] This may consist of source code translation but is more commonly bytecode translation to machine code, which is then ...

  8. Interpreter (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreter_(computing)

    Interpreters were used as early as 1952 to ease programming within the limitations of computers at the time (e.g. a shortage of program storage space, or no native support for floating point numbers). Interpreters were also used to translate between low-level machine languages, allowing code to be written for machines that were still under ...

  9. List of binary codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_binary_codes

    This is a list of some binary codes that are (or have been) used to represent text as a sequence of binary digits "0" and "1". Fixed-width binary codes use a set number of bits to represent each character in the text, while in variable-width binary codes, the number of bits may vary from character to character.
