AutoIt; Cobra; Visual Basic; Xojo; Ellipsis (three dots) MATLAB: The ellipsis need not end the line, but text following it is ignored.

    find_character(string,char) returns integer Description Returns the position of the start of the first occurrence of the character char in string. If the character is not found most of these routines return an invalid index value – -1 where indexes are 0-based, 0 where they are 1-based – or some value to be interpreted as Boolean FALSE.

  4. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    SQL includes operators and functions for calculating values on stored values. SQL allows the use of expressions in the select list to project data, as in the following example, which returns a list of books that cost more than 100.00 with an additional sales_tax column containing a sales tax figure calculated at 6% of the price .

  5. Ternary conditional operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_conditional_operator

    The detailed semantics of "the" ternary operator as well as its syntax differs significantly from language to language. A top level distinction from one language to another is whether the expressions permit side effects (as in most procedural languages) and whether the language provides short-circuit evaluation semantics, whereby only the selected expression is evaluated (most standard ...

  6. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    One possible definition of the approximate string matching problem is the following: Given a pattern string =... and a text string = …, find a substring ′, = ′ … in T, which, of all substrings of T, has the smallest edit distance to the pattern P.

  7. String-searching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String-searching_algorithm

    A string-searching algorithm, sometimes called string-matching algorithm, is an algorithm that searches a body of text for portions that match by pattern. A basic example of string searching is when the pattern and the searched text are arrays of elements of an alphabet ( finite set ) Σ.

    Example of QBE query with joins, designed in Borland's Paradox database. Query by Example (QBE) is a database query language for relational databases.It was devised by Moshé M. Zloof at IBM Research during the mid-1970s, in parallel to the development of SQL. [1]

  9. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    In computer programming, string interpolation (or variable interpolation, variable substitution, or variable expansion) is the process of evaluating a string literal containing one or more placeholders, yielding a result in which the placeholders are replaced with their corresponding values.
