It is not obvious, but the entries are clickable! It [0] is apparently a technique for speeding up processing of preprocessor lists.

Sorry, I misread your comment as clickbait instead of clickable.

~~I can see how others are somewhat clickbait, but this is literally single instruction/continuation multiple data. It uses a single step in the continuation mechanism to compute on multiple elements of data to speed up the computation.~~


No worries, I probably misread your comment too :). I thought you were asking what SIMD/SCMD is in this context, but as the submitter you probably already did, and already knew that the links were clickable.

BTW: I don't think the titles of each entry are particularly clickbait-y.
