This video will be concentrating on one of the many issues involved: How to manage the shapes and dimensions of high-performance multidimensional arrays. In order to prevent metaprogramming wizards from having a full unusable response, we will add one requirement: it must be…
The most detailed rationale for programs is performed locally: considering the proximity of a program – usually a single function and the interfaces around it – and the reason for its action without reference to the rest of the program. This justification serves a broader objective: ensure that the whole program behaves appropriately. In this video, you will be learning how to put…
