  2. Hamming distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance

    For a fixed length n, the Hamming distance is a metric on the set of the words of length n (also known as a Hamming space), as it fulfills the conditions of non-negativity, symmetry, the Hamming distance of two words is 0 if and only if the two words are identical, and it satisfies the triangle inequality as well: [2] Indeed, if we fix three words a, b and c, then whenever there is a ...

  3. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_structure)

    For example: int a[2][3]; This means that array a has 2 rows and 3 columns, and the array is of integer type. Here we can store 6 elements they will be stored linearly but starting from first row linear then continuing with second row. The above array will be stored as a 11, a 12, a 13, a 21, a 22, a 23.

  4. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    Hashing is a computationally- and storage-space-efficient form of data access that avoids the non-constant access time of ordered and unordered lists and structured trees, and the often-exponential storage requirements of direct access of state spaces of large or variable-length keys.

  5. Array (data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_type)

    In other array types, a slice can be replaced by an array of different size, with subsequent elements being renumbered accordingly – as in Python's list assignment A[5:5] = [10,20,30], that inserts three new elements (10, 20, and 30) before element "A[5]".

  6. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

    A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Numeric literals in Python are of the normal sort, e.g. 0, -1, 3.4, 3.5e-8. Python has arbitrary-length integers and automatically increases their storage size as necessary. Prior to Python 3, there were two kinds of integral numbers: traditional fixed size integers and "long" integers of arbitrary size.

  8. Metric space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_space

    An example of a length space which is not geodesic is the Euclidean plane minus the origin: the points (1, 0) and (-1, 0) can be joined by paths of length arbitrarily close to 2, but not by a path of length 2. An example of a metric space which is not a length space is given by the straight-line metric on the sphere: the straight line between ...

    A = round (rand (3, 4, 5) * 10) % 3x4x5 three-dimensional or cubic array > A (:,:, 3) % 3x4 two-dimensional array along first and second dimensions ans = 8 3 5 7 8 9 1 4 4 4 2 5 > A (:, 2: 3, 3) % 3x2 two-dimensional array along first and second dimensions ans = 3 5 9 1 4 2 > A (2: end,:, 3) % 2x4 two-dimensional array using the 'end' keyword ...
