The first incarnation of Patches himself appeared in For Answer as "Patch the Good Luck", a mecha pilot. Patch prefers to fight from afar using a sniper rifle, and will plead for mercy when defeated, retreating if the player spares his life. Patches reappears in Demon's Souls and its 2020 remake under the name "Patches the Hyena", a scavenger ...
Jerkin' or Jerk is a street dance and accompanying musical style derived from hyphy originating from and popularized by the Inland Empire-based groups New Boyz and Audio Push, and has origins in the Inland Empire and Los Angeles.
Codon is a language with an ahead-of-time (AOT) compiler, that (AOT) compiles a statically-typed Python-like language with "syntax and semantics are nearly identical to Python's, there are some notable differences" [149] e.g. it uses 64-bit machine integers, for speed, not arbitrary like Python, and it claims speedups over CPython are usually ...
PyPy (/ ˈ p aɪ p aɪ /) is an implementation of the Python programming language. [2] PyPy often runs faster than the standard implementation CPython because PyPy uses a just-in-time compiler. [3] Most Python code runs well on PyPy except for code that depends on CPython extensions, which either does not work or incurs some overhead when run ...
Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})
The Python Package Index, abbreviated as PyPI (/ ˌ p aɪ p i ˈ aɪ /) and also known as the Cheese Shop (a reference to the Monty Python's Flying Circus sketch "Cheese Shop"), [2]: 8 [3]: 742 is the official third-party software repository for Python. [4] It is analogous to the CPAN repository for Perl [5]: 36 and to the CRAN repository for R.
The definition of the term varies depending upon the community using it. In Ruby, [2] Python, [3] and many other dynamic programming languages, the term monkey patch only refers to dynamic modifications of a class or module at runtime, motivated by the intent to patch existing third-party code as a workaround to a bug or feature which does not act as desired.
In computing, copy-and-patch compilation is a simple compiler technique intended for just-in-time compilation (JIT compilation) that uses pattern matching to match pre-generated templates to parts of an abstract syntax tree (AST) or bytecode stream, and emit corresponding pre-written machine code fragments that are then patched to insert memory addresses, register addresses, constants and ...
