  2. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    Java (string-length string) Scheme (length string) Common Lisp, ISLISP (count string) Clojure: String.length string: OCaml: size string: Standard ML: length string: Number of Unicode code points Haskell: string.length: Number of UTF-16 code units Objective-C (NSString * only) string.characters.count: Number of characters Swift (2.x) count ...

  3. Comparison of programming languages (basic instructions)

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

    Characters are represented as strings of length 1. ^e Enumerations in this language are algebraic types with only nullary constructors ^f The value of n is provided by the SELECTED_INT_KIND [ 4 ] intrinsic function.

  4. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    The enclosed text becomes a string literal, which Python usually ignores (except when it is the first statement in the body of a module, class or function; see docstring). Elixir. The above trick used in Python also works in Elixir, but the compiler will throw a warning if it spots this.

  5. Comparison of programming languages (strings) - Wikipedia

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

    COBOL uses the STRING statement to concatenate string variables. MATLAB and Octave use the syntax "[x y]" to concatenate x and y. Visual Basic and Visual Basic .NET can also use the "+" sign but at the risk of ambiguity if a string representing a number and a number are together. Microsoft Excel allows both "&" and the function "=CONCATENATE(X,Y)".

  6. Switch statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement

    Switch statements function somewhat similarly to the if statement used in programming languages like C/C++, C#, Visual Basic .NET, Java and exist in most high-level imperative programming languages such as Pascal, Ada, C/C++, C#, [1]: 374–375 Visual Basic .NET, Java, [2]: 157–167 and in many other types of language, using such keywords as ...

  7. Help:Conditional expressions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Conditional_expressions

    Undefined parameter values are tricky: if the first positional parameter was not defined in the template call, then {{{1}}} will evaluate to the literal string "{{{1}}}" (i.e., the 7-character string containing three sets of curly braces around the number 1), which is a true value. (This problem exists for both named and positional parameters.)

  8. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    Switch statements in Java can use byte, short, char, and int (not long) primitive data types or their corresponding wrapper types. Starting with J2SE 5.0, it is possible to use enum types. Starting with Java SE 7, it is possible to use Strings. [2] Other reference types cannot be used in switch statements. Possible values are listed using case ...

  9. Duff's device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duff's_device

    In the C programming language, Duff's device is a way of manually implementing loop unrolling by interleaving two syntactic constructs of C: the do-while loop and a switch statement. Its discovery is credited to Tom Duff in November 1983, when Duff was working for Lucasfilm and used it to speed up a real-time animation program.
