  2. Null coalescing operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_coalescing_operator

    The null coalescing operator is a binary operator that is part of the syntax for a basic conditional expression in several programming languages, such as (in alphabetical order): C# [1] since version 2.0, [2] Dart [3] since version 1.12.0, [4] PHP since version 7.0.0, [5] Perl since version 5.10 as logical defined-or, [6] PowerShell since 7.0.0, [7] and Swift [8] as nil-coalescing operator.

  3. Object lifetime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_lifetime

    In some cases, object destruction consists solely of deallocating memory, particularly with garbage-collection, or if the object is a plain old data structure. In other cases, cleanup is performed prior to deallocation, particularly destroying member objects (in manual memory management), or deleting references from the object to other objects ...

  4. Null-terminated string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null-terminated_string

    Some systems use "modified UTF-8" which encodes NUL as two non-zero bytes (0xC0, 0x80) and thus allow all possible strings to be stored. This is not allowed by the UTF-8 standard, because it is an overlong encoding, and it is seen as a security risk. Some other byte may be used as end of string instead, like 0xFE or 0xFF, which are not used in ...

  5. Resource acquisition is initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_acquisition_is...

    This latter term is for the special case of automatic variables. RAII ties resources to object lifetime, which may not coincide with entry and exit of a scope. (Notably variables allocated on the free store have lifetimes unrelated to any given scope.) However, using RAII for automatic variables (SBRM) is the most common use case.

  6. End-of-life product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-of-life_product

    In an IT context, an end of life announcement (EOLA) may be issued to mark the commencement of a product's end of life status. [12] The EOLA may precede the last order date (LOD) by up to 90 days. Customers need to order the product before the last order date. JEDEC standards specify the end of the

  7. String interning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interning

    String interning also reduces memory usage if there are many instances of the same string value; for instance, it is read from a network or from storage. Such strings may include magic numbers or network protocol information. For example, XML parsers may intern names of tags and attributes to save memory.

  8. Comparison of C Sharp and Visual Basic .NET - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_C_Sharp_and...

    C# is case sensitive and all C# keywords are in lower cases. Visual Basic and C# share most keywords, with the difference being that the default Visual Basic keywords are the capitalised versions of the C# keywords, e.g. Public vs public, If vs if. A few keywords have very different versions in Visual Basic and C#:

  9. Levenshtein distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance

    In information theory, linguistics, and computer science, the Levenshtein distance is a string metric for measuring the difference between two sequences. The Levenshtein distance between two words is the minimum number of single-character edits (insertions, deletions or substitutions) required to change one word into the other.
