  2. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    In these languages, conversion refers to either implicitly or explicitly changing a value from one data type storage format to another, e.g. a 16-bit integer to a 32-bit integer. The storage needs may change as a result of the conversion, including a possible loss of precision or truncation.

  3. PHP serialization format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP_serialization_format

    The PHP serialization format is the serialization format used by the PHP programming language. The format can serialize PHP's primitive and compound types, and also properly serializes references. [1] The format was first introduced in PHP 4. [2] In addition to PHP, the format is also used by some third-party applications that are often ...

    ^ The current default format is binary. ^ The "classic" format is plain text, and an XML format is also supported. ^ Theoretically possible due to abstraction, but no implementation is included. ^ The primary format is binary, but text and JSON formats are available. [8] [9]

  6. Array (data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_type)

    An array data structure can be mathematically modeled as an abstract data structure (an abstract array) with two operations get(A, I): the data stored in the element of the array A whose indices are the integer tuple I. set(A, I, V): the array that results by setting the value of that element to V. These operations are required to satisfy the ...

    The method serves as a basis for a custom remote procedure call (RPC) system that is used for nearly all inter-machine communication at Google. [ 4 ] Protocol Buffers is similar to the Apache Thrift , Ion , and Microsoft Bond protocols, offering a concrete RPC protocol stack to use for defined services called gRPC .

  8. long double - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_double

    On some PowerPC systems, [11] long double is implemented as a double-double arithmetic, where a long double value is regarded as the exact sum of two double-precision values, giving at least a 106-bit precision; with such a format, the long double type does not conform to the IEEE floating-point standard.

  9. Variant type (COM) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variant_type_(COM)

    In Visual Basic (and Visual Basic for Applications) the Variant data type is a tagged union that can be used to represent any other data type (for example, integer, floating-point, single- and double-precision, object, etc.) except fixed-length string type. In Visual Basic, any variable not declared explicitly or the type of which is not ...
