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.
In array languages, operations are generalized to apply to both scalars and arrays. Thus, a+b expresses the sum of two scalars if a and b are scalars, or the sum of two arrays if they are arrays. An array language simplifies programming but possibly at a cost known as the abstraction penalty.
To do so, the description of the sequence must be given a finite description; this can be done if the sequence is over the integers or rational numbers, or even over the algebraic numbers. [11] Given such an encoding for sequences s n {\displaystyle s_{n}} , the following problems can be studied:
A linked list is a sequence of nodes that contain two fields: data (an integer value here as an example) and a link to the next node. The last node is linked to a terminator used to signify the end of the list.
A model set of the Towers of Hanoi (with 8 disks) An animated solution of the Tower of Hanoi puzzle for T(4,3). The Tower of Hanoi or Towers of Hanoi is a mathematical game or puzzle . It consists of three rods, and a number of disks of different sizes which can slide onto any rod.
Although Python does not provide for block comments [43] a bare string literal represented by a triple-quoted string is often used for this purpose. [44] [43] In the examples below, the triple double-quoted strings act like comments, but are also treated as docstrings:
The Fibonacci numbers can be found in different ways among the set of binary strings, or equivalently, among the subsets of a given set. The number of binary strings of length n without consecutive 1 s is the Fibonacci number F n +2 .
An integer programming problem is a mathematical optimization or feasibility program in which some or all of the variables are restricted to be integers.In many settings the term refers to integer linear programming (ILP), in which the objective function and the constraints (other than the integer constraints) are linear.
