Ethereum: semantics of sequence **
As a developer working with Ethereum, it is essential to understand the importance of the sequence in blockchain. In this article, we will deepen in the semantics of the sequence number in transactions of version 1 and we will study their consequences.
What are the sequential numbers?
Sequence numbers are unique identifiers assigned to each transaction in the Ethereum block. They allow effective tracking and ordering of transactions within a block.
Version 1 Transactions: semantics of sequence **
In version 1 (V1) transactions, the sequence number plays a decisive role in determining their order within a block. Here’s how it works:
- A new transaction is added to the blockchain.
- The transaction hash is calculated and compared to the hash of the previous transaction in the same block.
- If Hashes coincides, the transaction is added to the end of the block as a new block.
- If the hashs do not match, the previous transaction is replaced by the current one.
In this process, the sequence number of each transaction is used to determine its position in the block. The latest transaction has the highest sequence number (1), followed by the second most recent transaction (2), etc.
Example of Walk
Suppose we have two transactions:
Transaction A:
`
0X0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
`
Transaction B:
`
0x000000000000001111111111111111
`
In this example, the transaction B has a higher sequence number (2) than the transaction A. As a result, the B is added to the end of the block as the new block.
semantics of sequence at V1 transactions
The semantics of the sequence described above are specific to transactions with version 1. In the following versions of Ethereum, such as version 2 (V2), the behavior of the sequence number has changed.
For V2 transactions, the sequence number is used differently:
- The hash and the number of the transaction sequence are combined to form an index based on a “block”.
- This index allows more efficient order within a block, but also introduces additional complexity.
Conclusion
Understanding semantics of sequence in version 1 transactions is essential for working with Ethereum. By understanding how the consistent numbers are used to determine the order order, developers can optimize their code and build effective Blockchain applications.
