  2. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Python's name is derived from the British comedy group Monty Python, whom Python creator Guido van Rossum enjoyed while developing the language. Monty Python references appear frequently in Python code and culture; [ 189 ] for example, the metasyntactic variables often used in Python literature are spam and eggs instead of the traditional foo ...

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python, everything is an object, even classes. Classes, as objects, have a class, which is known as their metaclass. Python also supports multiple inheritance and mixins. The language supports extensive introspection of types and classes. Types can be read and compared—types are instances of type. The attributes of an object can be ...

  4. Name mangling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

    Python's runtime does not restrict access to such attributes, the mangling only prevents name collisions if a derived class defines an attribute with the same name. On encountering name mangled attributes, Python transforms these names by prepending a single underscore and the name of the enclosing class, for example: >>>

  6. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    The name is derived from the term "panel data", an econometrics term for data sets that include observations over multiple time periods for the same individuals, [3] as well as a play on the phrase "Python data analysis". [4]: 5 Wes McKinney started building what would become Pandas at AQR Capital while he was a researcher there from 2007 to ...

  7. Type introspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_introspection

    In Object Pascal, all classes descend from the base TObject class, which implements basic RTTI functionality. Every class's name can be referenced in code for RTTI purposes; the class name identifier is implemented as a pointer to the class's metadata, which can be declared and used as a variable of type TClass.

  8. Reflective programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_programming

    Convert a string matching the symbolic name of a class or function into a reference to or invocation of that class or function. Evaluate a string as if it were a source-code statement at runtime. Create a new interpreter for the language's bytecode to give a new meaning or purpose for a programming construct.

  9. Multiple dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_dispatch

    Multiple dispatch can be added to Python using a library extension. For example, using the module multimethod.py [13] and also with the module multimethods.py [14] which provides CLOS-style multimethods for Python without changing the underlying syntax or keywords of the language.
