Program Plan Intro

List slicing:

  • • Slicing is a concept of selecting a range of elements from a list.
  • • In Python, an expression that selects a subsection of a list is known as a slice.
  • • A slice is a span of elements that are taken from a list.
  • • Normally, the slice expression has a start index and an end index for slicing.
  • • Negative integers can also be used as indexes in the slicing expressions. The negative indexes refer to location relative to the end of the list.

Syntax:

In Python, the list slice statement with a negative index can be expressed as either.

listname[negativeIndex:]

or

listname[:negativeIndex]

Explanation:

In the list slice syntax,

  • • As the “start” index or the “end” index is the negative index, Python adds this negative index with the length of the list to get the start or end reference position for slicing.

This is a question that I have and would like someone who has experiences with scene graphs and entity component systems to answer.For context, I am currently implementing a game engine and currently I am debating on our current design.Our current design is we have a singular game component class that every component inherits from. Where we have components like SpriteRendererComponent, Mehs Component, etc. They inherit from this GameComponent class. The point of this is being able to have O(1) access to the scene to being able to modify components to attach more components with the idea of accessing those components to specific scene objects in a scene.Now, my question is what kinds of caveauts can this cause in terms of cache coherence? I am well aware that yes its O(1) and that is great but cache coherence is going to be really bad, but would like to know more explicit details and real-life examples such as write in RAM examples on how this is bad. A follow-up question that is part…
