Some notes on reviewing what C++ changed since the introduction of C++11. Mostly
comes from reading GotW: casting, smart pointers,
auto types, initialization,
temporaries, class structure and owning
pointers, const
correctness, dependencies and
pimpl

Jacobian matrix, Hessian matrix, and applications
Engineering math course in the first year of undergraduate would cover vector calculus.
Jacobian and Hessian matrices are naturally covered. Jacobian matrix of a vector-valued
function \(\mathbf{f}:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m\) is

Linear regression and confidence
Linear regression assumes a set of coordinates \((x_i, y_i),\ i=1,\cdots,N\) fits
the relation

Knuth (2000) Dancing Link
A paper that is easy to read, summarizing the development of algorithm to set
cover problem. The name “dancing link” is how Knuth called his implementation of
depth-first-search. Wikipedia has an article about that, named Knuth’s
Algorithm X.

Using Intel Intrinsics
Intel intrinsics is available in many compliers (VC++, gcc, clang, icc) to
allow SIMD programming using vector instruction sets from MMX to AVX2/3.
