This can simplify the definition of some functions. For example, writing a function to output the first n square numbers in Racket can be done accordingly: ( define ( first-n-squares n ) ( map ( lambda ( x ) ( * x x )) ;;; A function mapping x -> x^2 ( range n ))) ;;; List of the first n non-negative integers
In computer science, syntactic sugar is syntax within a programming language that is designed to make things easier to read or to express. It makes the language "sweeter" for human use: things can be expressed more clearly, more concisely, or in an alternative style that some may prefer.
Python has a similar approach to document its in-built methods, however mimics the language's lack of fixation on scope and data types. [5] This documentation has the syntax of each method, along with a short description and an example of the typical use of the method or function.
Examples include: Simplification of algebraic expressions, in computer algebra; Simplification of boolean expressions i.e. logic optimization; Simplification by conjunction elimination in inference in logic yields a simpler, but generally non-equivalent formula; Simplification of fractions
[51] [52] While Python 2.7 and older versions are officially unsupported, a different unofficial Python implementation, PyPy, continues to support Python 2, i.e. "2.7.18+" (plus 3.10), with the plus meaning (at least some) "backported security updates". [53] Python 3.0 was released on 3 December 2008, with some new semantics and changed syntax.
A Minnesota couple has reportedly been sentenced to four years after they locked their children in cages for "their safety." Benjamin and Christina Cotton from Red Wing, were sentenced by a ...
Introduced in Python 2.2 as an optional feature and finalized in version 2.3, generators are Python's mechanism for lazy evaluation of a function that would otherwise return a space-prohibitive or computationally intensive list. This is an example to lazily generate the prime numbers:
Commissioned as a publicity stunt by THQ (a video game publisher that has since gone out of business) for Queen Elizabeth II, this gold-plated Wii stands out as a literal gem in gaming history.
