  2. Property list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_list

    The array, set and dictionary binary types are made up of pointers - the objref and keyref entries - that index into an object table in the file. This means that binary plists can capture the fact that - for example - a separate array and dictionary serialized into a file both have the same data element stored in them.

  3. YAML - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML

    YAML (/ ˈ j æ m əl /, rhymes with camel [4]) was first proposed by Clark Evans in 2001, [15] who designed it together with Ingy döt Net [16] and Oren Ben-Kiki. [16]Originally YAML was said to mean Yet Another Markup Language, [17] because it was released in an era that saw a proliferation of markup languages for presentation and connectivity (HTML, XML, SGML, etc.).

  4. TOML - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOML

    Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language (TOML, originally Tom's Own Markup Language [2]) is a file format for configuration files. [3] It is intended to be easy to read and write due to obvious semantics which aim to be "minimal", and it is designed to map unambiguously to a dictionary.

  5. Serialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serialization

    Flow diagram. In computing, serialization (or serialisation, also referred to as pickling in Python) is the process of translating a data structure or object state into a format that can be stored (e.g. files in secondary storage devices, data buffers in primary storage devices) or transmitted (e.g. data streams over computer networks) and reconstructed later (possibly in a different computer ...

  6. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    find the value (if any) that is bound to a given key. The argument to this operation is the key, and the value is returned from the operation. If no value is found, some lookup functions raise an exception, while others return a default value (such as zero, null, or a specific value passed to the constructor).

  7. Marshalling (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshalling_(computer_science)

    Marshalling is similar to or synonymous with serialization, although technically serialization is one step in the process of marshalling an object.. Marshalling is describing the overall intent or process to transfer some live object from a client to a server (with client and server taken as abstract, mirrored concepts mapping to any matching ends of an arbitrary communication link ie.

  8. JSON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON

    Boolean: either of the values true or false; Array: an ordered list of zero or more elements, each of which may be of any type. Arrays use square bracket notation with comma-separated elements. Object: a collection of name–value pairs where the names (also called keys) are strings. The current ECMA standard states, "The JSON syntax does not ...

  9. ASN.1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASN.1

    The length of a sequence of values (an array) can also be specified, either as a fixed length or a range of permitted lengths. Constraints can also be specified as logical combinations of sets of basic constraints. Values used as constraints can either be literals used in the PDU specification, or ASN.1 values specified elsewhere in the schema ...
