  3. Ellipsis (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis_(computer...

    In the C programming language, an ellipsis is used to represent a variable number of parameters to a function. For example: int printf (const char * format,...); [4] The above function in C could then be called with different types and numbers of parameters such as: printf ("numbers %i %i %i", 5, 10, 15); and printf ("input string %s, %f ...

    If an ellipsis ends the sentence, then there are three dots, each separated by a space, followed by the final punctuation (e.g. Hah . . . ?). In some legal writing, an ellipsis is written as three asterisks, *** or * * *, to make it obvious that text has been omitted or to signal that the omitted text extends beyond the end of the paragraph.

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.

  8. Canonical form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_form

    Each one is converted into a canonical form by sorting. Since both sorted strings literally agree, the original strings were anagrams of each other. In mathematics and computer science, a canonical, normal, or standard form of a mathematical object is a standard way of presenting that object as a mathematical expression. Often, it is one which ...

  9. String operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_operations

    A string homomorphism (often referred to simply as a homomorphism in formal language theory) is a string substitution such that each character is replaced by a single string. That is, f ( a ) = s {\displaystyle f(a)=s} , where s {\displaystyle s} is a string, for each character a {\displaystyle a} .
