  2. Delete character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delete_character

    The Teletype Model 33 provided a key labelled RUB OUT to punch this character (after the user backed up the tape using another button), and did not provide a key that produced the Backspace character (BS). Therefore, a number of less-expensive computer systems that used Teletypes used this key (and thus the Delete code) to ignore the previous ...

    The actual sizes of short int, int, and long int are available as the constants short max int, max int, and long max int etc. ^b Commonly used for characters. ^c The ALGOL 68, C and C++ languages do not specify the exact width of the integer types short , int , long , and ( C99 , C++11 ) long long , so they are implementation-dependent.

  5. C string handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_string_handling

    On other platforms it is defined as 32-bit and a Unicode code point always fits. The C standard only requires that wchar_t be wide enough to hold the widest character set among the supported system locales [9] and be greater or equal in size to char, [10] wint_t: Integer type that can hold any value of a wchar_t as well as the value of the ...

  6. C syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_syntax

    C's integer types come in different fixed sizes, capable of representing various ranges of numbers. The type char occupies exactly one byte (the smallest addressable storage unit), which is typically 8 bits wide. (Although char can represent any of C's "basic" characters, a wider type may be required for international character sets.) Most ...

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports normal floating point numbers, which are created when a dot is used in a literal (e.g. 1.1), when an integer and a floating point number are used in an expression, or as a result of some mathematical operations ("true division" via the / operator, or exponentiation with a negative exponent).

  8. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    The enclosed text becomes a string literal, which Python usually ignores (except when it is the first statement in the body of a module, class or function; see docstring). Elixir The above trick used in Python also works in Elixir, but the compiler will throw a warning if it spots this.

  9. Type signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_signature

    Thus, calling f x, where f:: a-> b-> c, yields a new function f2:: b-> c that can be called f2 b to produce c. The actual type specifications can consist of an actual type, such as Integer, or a general type variable that is used in parametric polymorphic functions, such as a, or b, or anyType. So we can write something like: functionName:: a ...
