  2. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  3. List of terms relating to algorithms and data structures

    The NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures [1] is a reference work maintained by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. It defines a large number of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures.

    data structure A data organization, management, and storage format that enables efficient access and modification. [91] [92] [93] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data. [94] data type. Also simply type.

  5. Procedural programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_programming

    In contrast, procedural programming is about dividing the program implementation into variables, data structures, and subroutines. An important distinction is that while procedural involves procedures to operate on data structures, OOP bundles the two together. An object is a data structure and the behavior associated with that data structure. [3]

  6. Declarative programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declarative_programming

    This defines the factorial function using its recursive definition. In contrast, it is more typical to define a procedure for an imperative language. In lisps and lambda calculus, functions are generally first-class citizens. Loosely, this means that functions can be inputs and outputs for other functions.

    SDL-RT is based on the ITU Specification and Description Language replacing the data language with C. [4] Latest version of SDL standard (SDL'2010) now includes the support of C data types and syntax making SDL-RT basic principle part of the official standard. TNSDL is a variant developed by Nokia for their internal use.

  8. Record (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer science, a record (also called a structure, struct, or compound data type) is a composite data structure – a collection of fields, possibly of different data types, typically fixed in number and sequence. [1]

  9. Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming

    An object is a data structure or abstract data type containing fields (state variables containing data) and methods (subroutines or procedures defining the object's behavior in code). Fields may also be known as members, attributes, or properties.
