  2. Range (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(computer_programming)

    Another meaning of range in computer science is an alternative to iterator. When used in this sense, range is defined as "a pair of begin/end iterators packed together". [ 1 ] It is argued [ 1 ] that "Ranges are a superior abstraction" (compared to iterators) for several reasons, including better safety.

  3. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    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).

  4. Array slicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_slicing

    Reducing the range of any index to a single value effectively eliminates that index. This feature can be used, for example, to extract one-dimensional slices (vectors: in 3D, rows, columns, and tubes [1]) or two-dimensional slices (rectangular matrices) from a three-dimensional array. However, since the range can be specified at run-time, type ...

  5. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    The loop body is executed "for" the given values of the loop variable. This is more explicit in ALGOL versions of the for statement where a list of possible values and increments can be specified. In Fortran and PL/I, the keyword DO is used for the same thing and it is named a do-loop; this is different from a do while loop.

  6. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    A common solution is to initially compute the sine of many evenly distributed values, and then to find the sine of x we choose the sine of the value closest to x through array indexing operation. This will be close to the correct value because sine is a continuous function with a bounded rate of change. [10]: 6 For example: [11]: 545–548

  7. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach_loop

    In computer programming, foreach loop (or for-each loop) is a control flow statement for traversing items in a collection. foreach is usually used in place of a standard for loop statement.

  8. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    The standard type hierarchy of Python 3. In computer science and computer programming, a data type (or simply type) is a collection or grouping of data values, usually specified by a set of possible values, a set of allowed operations on these values, and/or a representation of these values as machine types. [1]

  9. Boolean data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_data_type

    The number 0, the strings "0" and "", the empty list (), and the special value undef evaluate to false. [8] All else evaluates to true. Lua has a Boolean data type, but non-Boolean values can also behave as Booleans. The non-value nil evaluates to false, whereas every other data type
