zigzag fence 1 .
A sequence of one or more distinguished ({
out -
of -
band })
characters (
or other data items ),
used to delimit a piece of
data intended to be treated as a unit (
the computer -
science
literature calls this a "
sentinel ").
The NUL (
ASCII 0000000 )
character that terminates strings in C is a fence . {
Hex }
FF
is also (
though slightly less frequently )
used this way .
See
{
zigamorph }.
2 .
An extra data value inserted in an array or other data
structure in order to allow some normal test on the array '
s
contents also to function as a termination test .
For example ,
a highly optimised routine for finding a value in an array
might artificially place a copy of the value to be searched
for after the last slot of the array ,
thus allowing the main
search loop to search for the value without having to check at
each pass whether the end of the array had been reached .
3 . [
among users of optimising compilers ]
Any technique ,
usually exploiting knowledge about the compiler ,
that blocks
certain optimisations .
Used when explicit mechanisms are not
available or are overkill .
Typically a hack : "
I call a dummy
procedure there to force a flush of the optimiser '
s
register -
colouring info "
can be expressed by the shorter
"
That '
s a fence procedure ".
