Self-organizing list, a strategy for re-ordering the keys in an association list to speed up searches for frequently-accessed keys. Property list, or plist, another associative array data structure used in Lisp [11] (not to be confused with property lists, a file format also called plist files).
CLPython is an implementation of the Python programming language written in Common Lisp. This project allow to call Lisp functions from Python and Python functions from Lisp. Licensed under LGPL. CLPython was started in 2006, but as of 2013, it was not actively developed and the mailing list was closed. [1]
Because of Lisp's early heritage in list processing, it has a wide array of higher-order functions relating to iteration over sequences. In many cases where an explicit loop would be needed in other languages (like a for loop in C) in Lisp the same task can be accomplished with a higher-order function. (The same is true of many functional ...
A singly-linked list structure, implementing a list with three integer elements. The term list is also used for several concrete data structures that can be used to implement abstract lists, especially linked lists and arrays. In some contexts, such as in Lisp programming, the term list may refer specifically to a linked list rather than an array.
But a string as a variable can have any length, not a fixed one, like tuple does! A list is a string, not a tuple. Pcap ping 12:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC) A list, string, or uple value has fixed length, as you say. In some programming languages, a tuple (or list) variable can be assigned values of different lengths; Python is an example.
Classes can have multiple superclasses, a list of slots (member variables in C++/Java parlance) and a special metaclass. Slots can be allocated by class (all instances of a class share the slot) or by instance. Each slot has a name and the value of a slot can be accessed by that name using the function slot-value. Additionally special generic ...
For instance, in (defclass x (a b) ()), a class definition, the (a b) is a list of base classes, so these names are looked up in the space of class names, and x isn't a reference to an existing binding, but the name of a new class being derived from a and b. These facts emerge purely from the semantics of defclass.
Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.
