  2. Proper length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_length

    Proper length [1] or rest length [2] is the length of an object in the object's rest frame. The measurement of lengths is more complicated in the theory of relativity than in classical mechanics . In classical mechanics, lengths are measured based on the assumption that the locations of all points involved are measured simultaneously.

  3. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in bold blue font. The syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++. Unlike C++, Java has no global functions or variables, but has data members which are also regarded as global variables.

  4. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    Java compilers do not enforce these rules, but failing to follow them may result in confusion and erroneous code. For example, widget.expand() and Widget.expand() imply significantly different behaviours: widget.expand() implies an invocation to method expand() in an instance named widget , whereas Widget.expand() implies an invocation to ...

  5. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    Storing the string length as byte limits the maximum string length to 255. To avoid such limitations, improved implementations of P-strings use 16-, 32-, or 64-bit words to store the string length. When the length field covers the address space, strings are limited only by the available memory.

  6. Length contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_contraction

    Length contraction is the phenomenon that a moving object's length is measured to be shorter than its proper length, which is the length as measured in the object's own rest frame. [1] It is also known as Lorentz contraction or Lorentz–FitzGerald contraction (after Hendrik Lorentz and George Francis FitzGerald ) and is usually only noticeable ...

  7. Bell's spaceship paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell's_spaceship_paradox

    In the following, the rest length [3] or proper length [4] of an object is its length measured in the object's rest frame. (This length corresponds to the proper distance between two events in the special case, when these events are measured simultaneously at the endpoints in the object's rest frame. [4])

  9. Object lifetime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_lifetime

    In many contexts, including C++, C# and Java, an object is created via special syntax like new typename(). In C++, that provides manual memory management, an object is destroyed via the delete keyword. In C# and Java, with no explicit destruction syntax, the garbage collector destroys unused objects automatically and non-deterministically.
