1. Introduction
The fastest in-memory database in ABAP is ... often the ABAP table buffer!
The ABAP table buffer has an innocent-sounding name. Contrary to query buffers, which store the result of a previous query, the ABAP table buffer buffers the ...

Typically there are two kinds of improvements to a programming language. This first kind makes difficult things easy and the second kind makes impossible things possible. This blog post is about arbitrary precision arithmetic which fa...
Dynamic Structure Component Expressions
1. Introduction
In this blog post I will introduce dynamic structure component expressions. This blog post is a sequel to my previous blog post:
A new kind of ABAP expression
Everything in this section only...
It is a friday afternoon and you want to write the longest ABAP statement on earth? Of course you could take advanced ABAP expressions for this.
An alternative would be to use ABAP SQL! What about an SQL statement which can play chess?
Let's give i...
New ABAP expressions for generic and dynamic programming in ABAP Platform 2021:
Part I - Dynamic Access to (maybe generic) references
Do you use the new ABAP expressions like constructor operators or table selectors in your coding? But you often find...
This is just the normal ORDER BY clause.https://help.sap.com/doc/abapdocu_757_index_htm/7.57/en-US/index.htm?file=abaporderby_clause.htm#!ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_4@4@In 757 the ABAP help is not very good for this though. It will be better in later releases....
You mean POW. Bigint and Rational support POW and Bigint even supports POWMOD which is
"a^b mod m" where b is a big !!! integer.
With EXP(x) I mean the exponential function e^x, where e is Euler's constant 2.7...
Oh, this is very impressive.Of course it is possible as ABAP is Turing complete. But it is very difficult and I did not though that someone would take up for the task knowing that it will be very slow.How fast do you generate a 2048 bit RSA key?In my...
