  2. Comparison of programming languages (associative array)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    Even when using numerical indexes, PHP internally stores arrays as associative arrays. [13] So, PHP can have non-consecutively numerically indexed arrays. The keys have to be of integer (floating point numbers are truncated to integer) or string type, while values can be of arbitrary types, including other arrays and objects.

  3. Covariance and contravariance (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covariance_and_contra...

    With covariant arrays this cannot be guaranteed to be safe, since the backing store might actually be an array of cats. So, the covariant rule is also not safe—the array constructor should be invariant. Note that this is only an issue for mutable arrays; the covariant rule is safe for immutable (read-only) arrays.

  4. Foreign function interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_function_interface

    The primary function of a foreign function interface is to mate the semantics and calling conventions of one programming language (the host language, or the language which defines the FFI), with the semantics and conventions of another (the guest language).

  5. Kotlin (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    As in C, C++, C#, Java, and Go, the entry point to a Kotlin program is a function named "main", which may be passed an array containing any command-line arguments. This is optional since Kotlin 1.3. [35] Perl, PHP, and Unix shell–style string interpolation is supported. Type inference is also supported.

  6. Lisp (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    A list is nothing more than an aggregate of linked conses. A variable that refers to a given list is simply a pointer to the first cons in the list. Traversal of a list can be done by cdring down the list; that is, taking successive cdrs to visit each cons of the list; or by using any of several higher-order functions to map a function over a list.

  7. Primitive data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_data_type

    Also available are the types usize and isize which are unsigned and signed integers that are the same bit width as a reference with the usize type being used for indices into arrays and indexable collection types. [22] Rust also has: bool for the Boolean type. [22] f32 and f64 for 32 and 64-bit floating point numbers. [22] char for a unicode ...

  8. Dynamic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_array

    In computer science, a dynamic array, growable array, resizable array, dynamic table, mutable array, or array list is a random access, variable-size list data structure that allows elements to be added or removed. It is supplied with standard libraries in many modern mainstream programming languages.

  9. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    In computer science, an associative array, map, symbol table, or dictionary is an abstract data type that stores a collection of (key, value) pairs, such that each possible key appears at most once in the collection. In mathematical terms, an associative array is a function with finite domain. [1] It supports 'lookup', 'remove', and 'insert ...
