    string.length() C++ (STL) string.length: Cobra, D, JavaScript: string.length() Number of UTF-16 code units: Java (string-length string) Scheme (length string) Common Lisp, ISLISP (count string) Clojure: String.length string: OCaml: size string: Standard ML: length string: Number of Unicode code points Haskell: string.length: Number of UTF-16 ...

  3. Comparison of programming languages (array) - Wikipedia

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

    The following list contains syntax examples of how to determine the dimensions (index of the first element, the last element or the size in elements). Some languages index from zero. Some index from one.

  4. Dictionary coder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dictionary_coder

    A dictionary coder, also sometimes known as a substitution coder, is a class of lossless data compression algorithms which operate by searching for matches between the text to be compressed and a set of strings contained in a data structure (called the 'dictionary') maintained by the encoder. When the encoder finds such a match, it substitutes ...

    Here we use the 256 possible values of a byte. """ self. common_dictionary = common_dictionary def encode (self, plain_text: str)-> Generator [int]: # Changing the common dictionary is a bad idea. Make a copy. dictionary = list ( self . common_dictionary ) # Read in each character for c in plain_text . encode ( "latin-1" ): # Change to bytes ...

  6. Trie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

    Searching for a value in a trie is guided by the characters in the search string key, as each node in the trie contains a corresponding link to each possible character in the given string. Thus, following the string within the trie yields the associated value for the given string key.

  7. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    Lookup, find, or get find the value (if any) that is bound to a given key. The argument to this operation is the key, and the value is returned from the operation. If no value is found, some lookup functions raise an exception, while others return a default value (such as zero, null, or a specific value passed to the constructor).

  8. LZ77 and LZ78 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZ77_and_LZ78

    Each dictionary entry is of the form dictionary[...] = {index, token}, where index is the index to a dictionary entry representing a previously seen sequence, and token is the next token from the input that makes this entry unique in the dictionary. Note how the algorithm is greedy, and so nothing is added to the table until a unique making ...

  9. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    For example, one could define a dictionary having a string "toast" mapped to the integer 42 or vice versa. The keys in a dictionary must be of an immutable Python type, such as an integer or a string, because under the hood they are implemented via a hash function. This makes for much faster lookup times, but requires keys not change.
