  2. Comparison of programming languages (strings) - Wikipedia

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

    Visual Basic and Visual Basic .NET can also use the "+" sign but at the risk of ambiguity if a string representing a number and a number are together. Microsoft Excel allows both "&" and the function "=CONCATENATE(X,Y)". Rust has the concat! macro and the format! macro, of which the latter is the most prevalent throughout the documentation and ...

  3. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    String functions are used in computer programming languages to manipulate a string or query information about a string (some do both).. Most programming languages that have a string datatype will have some string functions although there may be other low-level ways within each language to handle strings directly.

  4. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Strings in Python are immutable, so a string operation such as a substitution of characters, that in other programming languages might alter the string in place, returns a new string in Python. Performance considerations sometimes push for using special techniques in programs that modify strings intensively, such as joining character arrays ...

  5. Concatenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concatenation

    A spreadsheet's concatenate ("&") function is used to assemble a complex text string—in this example, XML code for an SVG "circle" element. In formal language theory and computer programming, string concatenation is the operation of joining character strings end-to-end. For example, the concatenation of "snow" and "ball" is "snowball".

  6. String literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_literal

    This is a feature of C, [7] [8] C++, [9] D, [10] Ruby, [11] and Python, [12] which copied it from C. [13] Notably, this concatenation happens at compile time, during lexical analysis (as a phase following initial tokenization), and is contrasted with both run time string concatenation (generally with the + operator) [14] and concatenation ...

  7. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    String interpolation is an alternative to building string via concatenation, which requires repeat quoting and unquoting; [2] or substituting into a printf format string, where the variable is far from where it is used. Compare:

  8. Thompson's construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson's_construction

    Then, the number of states of A is 2s − c (linear in the size of E). The number of transitions leaving any state is at most two. Since an NFA of m states and at most e transitions from each state can match a string of length n in time O(emn), a Thompson NFA can do pattern matching in linear time, assuming a fixed-size alphabet. [4] [better ...

  9. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(computer_science)

    [7] [4] [8] Use of the word "string" to mean "a sequence of symbols or linguistic elements in a definite order" emerged from mathematics, symbolic logic, and linguistic theory to speak about the formal behavior of symbolic systems, setting aside the symbols' meaning. [4] For example, logician C. I. Lewis wrote in 1918: [9]
