  2. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    C and C++ perform such promotion for objects of Boolean, character, wide character, enumeration, and short integer types which are promoted to int, and for objects of type float, which are promoted to double. Unlike some other type conversions, promotions never lose precision or modify the value stored in the object. In Java:

  3. Boxing (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_(computer_programming)

    In Java, a LinkedList can only store values of type Object. One might desire to have a LinkedList of int, but this is not directly possible. Instead Java defines primitive wrapper classes corresponding to each primitive type: Integer and int, Character and char, Float and float, etc.

  4. Name mangling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

    Any object code produced by compilers is usually linked with other pieces of object code (produced by the same or another compiler) by a type of program called a linker. The linker needs a great deal of information on each program entity. For example, to correctly link a function it needs its name, the number of arguments and their types, and ...

    In the below example, the method objectToString takes an Object parameter which is assumed to be of type String. public static String objectToString ( Object myObject ) { // This will only work when the myObject currently holding value is string. return ( String ) myObject ; } public static void main ( String [] args ) { // This will work since ...

  6. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    Single precision is termed REAL in Fortran; [1] SINGLE-FLOAT in Common Lisp; [2] float in C, C++, C# and Java; [3] Float in Haskell [4] and Swift; [5] and Single in Object Pascal , Visual Basic, and MATLAB. However, float in Python, Ruby, PHP, and OCaml and single in versions of Octave before 3.2 refer to double-precision numbers.

  7. CBOR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBOR

    A tag of 2 indicates that the following byte string encodes an unsigned bignum. A tag of 32 indicates that the following text string is a URI as defined in RFC 3986. RFC 8746 defines tags 64–87 to encode homogeneous arrays of fixed-size integer or floating-point values as byte strings. The tag 55799 is allocated to mean "CBOR data follows".

  8. Most vexing parse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_vexing_parse

    The most vexing parse is a counterintuitive form of syntactic ambiguity resolution in the C++ programming language. In certain situations, the C++ grammar cannot distinguish between the creation of an object parameter and specification of a function's type. In those situations, the compiler is required to interpret the line as a function type ...

  9. Complex data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_data_type

    The C++ standard library provides a complex template class as well as complex-math functions in the <complex> header. The Go programming language has built-in types complex64 (each component is 32-bit float) and complex128 (each component is 64-bit float). Imaginary number literals can be specified by appending an "i".
