  2. Ellipsis (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis_(computer...

    In some programming languages (including Ada, Perl, Ruby, Apache Groovy, Kotlin, Haskell, and Pascal), a shortened two-dot ellipsis is used to represent a range of values given two endpoints; for example, to iterate through a list of integers between 1 and 100 inclusive in Perl: foreach (1..100)

  3. Command-line argument parsing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_argument_parsing

    PHP uses argc as a count of arguments and argv as an array containing the values of the arguments. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] To create an array from command-line arguments in the -foo:bar format, the following might be used:

  4. Variadic macro in the C preprocessor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_macro_in_the_C...

    The __VA_OPT__ macro is replaced by its argument when arguments are present, and omitted otherwise. Common compilers also permit passing zero arguments before this addition, however. [4] [6] The C preprocessor rules prevent macro names in the argument of __VA_OPT__ from expanding recursively. It is possible to work around this limitation up to ...

  5. Variadic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_function

    Another operation that has been implemented as a variadic function in many languages is output formatting. The C function printf and the Common Lisp function format are two such examples. Both take one argument that specifies the formatting of the output, and any number of arguments that provide the values to be formatted.

  6. Map (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_(higher-order_function)

    Array#map passes 3 arguments to func: the element, the index of the element, and the array. Unused arguments can be omitted. Unused arguments can be omitted. Stops at the end of List1 , extending the shorter arrays with undefined items if needed.

  7. Variable-length array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_array

    In computer programming, a variable-length array (VLA), also called variable-sized or runtime-sized, is an array data structure whose length is determined at runtime, instead of at compile time. [1] In the language C, the VLA is said to have a variably modified data type that depends on a value (see Dependent type).

  8. Parameter (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parameter_(computer...

    When discussing the code inside the subroutine definition, the variables in the subroutine's parameter list are the parameters, while the values of the parameters at runtime are the arguments. For example, in C, when dealing with threads it is common to pass in an argument of type void* and cast it to an expected type:

  9. First-class function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-class_function

    A simple example of a higher-ordered function is the map function, which takes, as its arguments, a function and a list, and returns the list formed by applying the function to each member of the list. For a language to support map, it must support passing a function as an argument.
