  2. Column family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Column_family

    A column family is a database object that contains columns of related data. It is a tuple (pair) that consists of a key–value pair , where the key is mapped to a value that is a set of columns. In analogy with relational databases, a column family is as a "table", each key-value pair being a "row".

  3. Row (database) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_(database)

    A database table can be thought of as consisting of rows and columns. [1] Each row in a table represents a set of related data, and every row in the table has the same structure. For example, in a table that represents companies, each row might represent a single company. Columns might represent things like company name, address, etc.

  4. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    To use column-major order in a row-major environment, or vice versa, for whatever reason, one workaround is to assign non-conventional roles to the indexes (using the first index for the column and the second index for the row), and another is to bypass language syntax by explicitly computing positions in a one-dimensional array.

  5. Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel

    Microsoft Excel has the basic features of all spreadsheets, [11] using a grid of cells arranged in numbered rows and letter-named columns to organize data manipulations like arithmetic operations. It has a battery of supplied functions to answer statistical, engineering, and financial needs.

  6. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_orientation

    Data orientation is the representation of tabular data in a linear memory model such as in-disk or in-memory. The two most common representations are column-oriented (columnar format) and row-oriented (row format). [1] [2] The choice of data orientation is a trade-off and an architectural decision in databases, query engines, and numerical ...

  7. Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm

    Flowchart of using successive subtractions to find the greatest common divisor of number r and s. In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm (/ ˈ æ l ɡ ə r ɪ ð əm / ⓘ) is a finite sequence of mathematically rigorous instructions, typically used to solve a class of specific problems or to perform a computation. [1]

  8. Rank (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_(linear_algebra)

    Now, each row of A is given by a linear combination of the r rows of R. Therefore, the rows of R form a spanning set of the row space of A and, by the Steinitz exchange lemma, the row rank of A cannot exceed r. This proves that the row rank of A is less than or equal to the column rank of A.

  9. Rope (data structure) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer programming, a rope, or cord, is a data structure composed of smaller strings that is used to efficiently store and manipulate longer strings or entire texts. For example, a text editing program may use a rope to represent the text being edited, so that operations such as insertion, deletion, and random access can be done efficiently.
