Caching’s Effect on Program Performance
How does caching effect the performance of a running program? From my understanding, the assumption that each instruction always takes the same amount of time is not always correct, because of the effects of caching. How does caching affect algorithmic performance? Thanks in advance.

Using replacement to get possible outcomes to then search through HUGE amount of data
I have a database table holding 40 million records (table A).
Amortized Analysis? (Worst-case Performance Guarantees)
What is Amortized Analysis? And how can it help me achieve worst-case performance guarantees in my programs?
Analyzing Memory Usage: Java vs C++ Negligible?
How does the memory usage of an integer object written in Java comparecontrast with the memory usage of a integer object written in C++? Is the difference negligible? No difference? A big difference? I’m guessing it’s the same because an int is an int regardless of the language (?)
When to prefer a generalized solution over solving specific cases
In programming we’re often faced with a choice: cover each conceivable use case individually, or solve the general problem:
Dealing with units in arithmetic operations (multiplication and division)
I need to design a function to perform the basic arithmetic operations that are addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (x), and division (/) between 2 numbers.
Are all programming problems algorithm problems? [closed]

Is there any better approach to shortest path finding within a (vehicular) traffic network?
Dear fellow programmers,
Robot arm sample problem in Skiena’s “Algorithm Design Manual” seems to be invalid to me [closed]
Closed 9 years ago.
