File Magic Numbers

File Magic Numbers

Magic numbers are the first bits of a file which uniquely identify the type of file. This makes programming easier because complicated file structures need not be searched in order to identify the file type.

For example, a jpeg file starts with ffd8 ffe0 0010 4a46 4946 0001 0101 0047 ......JFIF.....G ffd8 shows that it's a JPEG file, and ffe0 identify a JFIF type structure. There is an ascii encoding of "JFIF" which comes after a length code, but that is not necessary in order to identify the file. The first 4 bytes do that uniquely.

This gives an ongoing list of file-type magic numbers.

C++ versus V8 versus luajit versus C benchmark - (hash) tables

Warning

This benchmark has been misleading for a while. It was originally made to demonstrate how JIT compilers can do all sorts of crazy stuff to your code - especially LuaJIT - and was meant to be a starting point of discussion about what exactly LuaJIT does and how.

As a result, its not indicative of what its performance may be on more realistic data. Differences can be expected because
