  2. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  3. Method cascading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_cascading

    Cascading can be implemented in terms of chaining by having the methods return the target object (receiver, this, self).However, this requires that the method be implemented this way already – or the original object be wrapped in another object that does this – and that the method not return some other, potentially useful value (or nothing if that would be more appropriate, as in setters).

  4. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    Python. The use of the triple-quotes to comment-out lines of source, does not actually form a comment. [19] The enclosed text becomes a string literal, which Python usually ignores (except when it is the first statement in the body of a module, class or function; see docstring). Elixir

  5. Data definition language - Wikipedia

    The DROP statement destroys an existing database, table, index, or view. A DROP statement in SQL removes a component from a relational database management system (RDBMS). The types of objects that can be dropped depends on which RDBMS is being used, but most support the dropping of tables , users , and databases .

  6. Database schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_schema

    The database schema is the structure of a database described in a formal language supported typically by a relational database management system (RDBMS). The term " schema " refers to the organization of data as a blueprint of how the database is constructed (divided into database tables in the case of relational databases ).

  7. EXPRESS (data modeling language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EXPRESS_(data_modeling...

    Aggregation data type: The possible kinds of aggregation_types are SET, BAG, LIST and ARRAY. While SET and BAG are unordered, LIST and ARRAY are ordered. A BAG may contain a particular value more than once, this is not allowed for SET. An ARRAY is the only aggregate that may contain unset members. This is not possible for SET, LIST, BAG.

  8. Schema evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_evolution

    [4] [5] Supporting schema evolution is a difficult problem involving complex mapping among schema versions and the tool support has been so far very limited. The recent theoretical advances on mapping composition [ 6 ] and mapping invertibility, [ 7 ] which represent the core problems underlying the schema evolution remains almost inaccessible ...

  9. XML schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML_schema

    The process of checking to see if a XML document conforms to a schema is called validation, which is separate from XML's core concept of syntactic well-formedness.All XML documents must be well-formed, but it is not required that a document be valid unless the XML parser is "validating", in which case the document is also checked for conformance with its associated schema.
