  2. Run-length encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-length_encoding

    Run-length encoding (RLE) is a form of lossless data compression in which runs of data (consecutive occurrences of the same data value) are stored as a single occurrence of that data value and a count of its consecutive occurrences, rather than as the original run. As an imaginary example of the concept, when encoding an image built up from ...

  3. Timsort - Wikipedia

    Timsort was Python's standard sorting algorithm from version 2.3 ... Each run has a minimum size, which is based on the size of the input and is defined at the start ...

  4. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    String (computer science) Strings are typically made up of characters, and are often used to store human-readable data, such as words or sentences. In computer programming, a string is traditionally a sequence of characters, either as a literal constant or as some kind of variable. The latter may allow its elements to be mutated and the length ...

  5. HKDF - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HKDF

    The main approach HKDF follows is the "extract-then-expand" paradigm, where the KDF logically consists of two modules: the first stage takes the input keying material and "extracts" from it a fixed-length pseudorandom key, and then the second stage "expands" this key into several additional pseudorandom keys (the output of the KDF).

  6. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python syntax and semantics. A snippet of Python code with keywords highlighted in bold yellow font. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java ...

  7. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python is a multi-paradigm programming language. Object-oriented programming and structured programming are fully supported, and many of their features support functional programming and aspect-oriented programming (including metaprogramming [70] and metaobjects). [71] Many other paradigms are supported via extensions, including design by ...

    var c = 0.0 // The array input has elements indexed for i = 1 to input.length do // c is zero the first time around. var y = input[i] + c // sum + c is an approximation to the exact sum. (sum,c) = Fast2Sum(sum,y) // Next time around, the lost low part will be added to y in a fresh attempt.

    import random # bogosort # what happens is there is a random array that is generated by the last function # the first function checks whether the array is sorted or not # the second function repeatedly shuffles the array for as long as it remains unsorted # and that's it # happy coding => # this function checks whether or not the array is sorted def is_sorted (random_array): for i in range (1 ...
