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".
A stylistic depiction of values inside of a so-named comma-separated values (CSV) text file. The commas (shown in red) are used as field delimiters. A delimiter is a sequence of one or more characters for specifying the boundary between separate, independent regions in plain text, mathematical expressions or other data streams.
Comma-separated values (CSV) is a text file format that uses commas to separate values, and newlines to separate records. A CSV file stores tabular data (numbers and text) in plain text, where each line of the file typically represents one data record.
Note if a UDH is present and the data encoding is the default 7-bit alphabet, the user data must be 7-bit word aligned after the UDH. [2] This means up to 6 bits of zeros need to be inserted at the start of the [message]. E.g. with a UDH containing a single part, 05 00 03 CC 01 01
The 1931 grammar of Volapük uses the comma as its decimal separator but, somewhat unusually, the middle dot as its thousands separator (12·345·678,90123). [ 22 ] In 1958, disputes between European and American delegates over the correct representation of the decimal separator nearly stalled the development of the ALGOL computer programming ...
The comma operator separates expressions (which have value) in a way analogous to how the semicolon terminates statements, and sequences of expressions are enclosed in parentheses analogously to how sequences of statements are enclosed in braces: [1] (a, b, c) is a sequence of expressions, separated by commas, which evaluates to the last expression c, while {a; b; c;} is a sequence of ...
(n.) mechanism that allows a railway vehicle to change tracks (UK: points); hence switch engine or switcher (UK: shunter), switchyard (UK: marshalling yard), switch tower (UK: signal box) (v.) to change tracks by means of a switch see also bait and switch: switchback a road or railway that alternately ascends and descends a roller coaster
[citation needed] In the United States, the use of a centered dot for the multiplication of numbers or values of quantities is discouraged by NIST. [ 12 ] In mathematics , a small middle dot can be used to represent multiplication ; for example, x ⋅ y {\displaystyle x\cdot y} for multiplying x {\displaystyle x} by y {\textstyle y} .
