  2. Data structure alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

    Data structure alignment is the way data is arranged and accessed in computer memory. It consists of three separate but related issues: data alignment, data structure padding, and packing. The CPU in modern computer hardware performs reads and writes to memory most efficiently when the data is naturally aligned, which generally means that the ...

  3. APL syntax and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_syntax_and_symbols

    Step 1 {of topmost APL code entered at left}) 4-5 = -1. Step 2) 3 times -1 = -3. Step 3) Take the floor or lower of 2 and -3 = -3. Step 4) Divide 1 by -3 = -0.3333333333 = final result. An operator may have function or data operands and evaluate to a dyadic or monadic function. Operators have long left scope.

  4. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Contents. Python syntax and semantics. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java.

  5. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    In computer programming, string interpolation (or variable interpolation, variable substitution, or variable expansion) is the process of evaluating a string literal containing one or more placeholders, yielding a result in which the placeholders are replaced with their corresponding values. It is a form of simple template processing [ 1 ] or ...

  6. NumPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NumPy

    numpy.org. NumPy (pronounced / ˈnʌmpaɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [ 3 ] The predecessor of NumPy, Numeric, was originally created by Jim Hugunin with ...

  7. Base64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

    Base64. In computer programming, Base64 is a group of binary-to-text encoding schemes that transforms binary data into a sequence of printable characters, limited to a set of 64 unique characters. More specifically, the source binary data is taken 6 bits at a time, then this group of 6 bits is mapped to one of 64 unique characters.

  8. Cyclic redundancy check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check

    A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to digital data. [ 1 ][ 2 ] Blocks of data entering these systems get a short check value attached, based on the remainder of a polynomial division of their contents.

  9. Array (data type) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer science, array is a data type that represents a collection of elements (values or variables), each selected by one or more indices (identifying keys) that can be computed at run time during program execution. Such a collection is usually called an array variable or array value. [ 1 ] By analogy with the mathematical concepts vector ...
