    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    As in Perl 5, Perl 6 default hashes are flat: keys are strings and values are scalars. One can define a hash to not coerce all keys to strings automatically: these are referred to as "object hashes", because the keys of such hashes remain the original object rather than a stringification thereof.

  3. Arbitrary-precision arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary-precision_arithmetic

    But even with the greatest common divisor divided out, arithmetic with rational numbers can become unwieldy very quickly: 1/99 − 1/100 = 1/9900, and if 1/101 is then added, the result is 10001/999900. The size of arbitrary-precision numbers is limited in practice by the total storage available, and computation time.

  4. Stack (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)

    This type of stack implementation is extremely common, but it is vulnerable to buffer overflow attacks (see the text). A number of programming languages are stack-oriented, meaning they define most basic operations (adding two numbers, printing a character) as taking their arguments from the stack, and placing any return values back on the stack.

  5. Trie - Wikipedia

    Tries are also disadvantageous when the key value cannot be easily represented as string, such as floating point numbers where multiple representations are possible (e.g. 1 is equivalent to 1.0, +1.0, 1.00, etc.), [12]: 359 however it can be unambiguously represented as a binary number in IEEE 754, in comparison to two's complement format.

  7. Selection (relational algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_(relational_algebra)

    In relational algebra, a selection (sometimes called a restriction in reference to E.F. Codd's 1970 paper [1] and not, contrary to a popular belief, to avoid confusion with SQL's use of SELECT, since Codd's article predates the existence of SQL) is a unary operation that denotes a subset of a relation.

The data set may comprise data for one or more members, corresponding to the number of rows. data warehouse (DW or DWH) Also enterprise data warehouse (EDW).
