  2. Comparison of programming languages (associative array)

    Python 2.7 and 3.x also support dict comprehensions (similar to list comprehensions), a compact syntax for generating a dictionary from any iterator:

  3. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    This technique is simple and fast, with each dictionary operation taking constant time. However, the space requirement for this structure is the size of the entire keyspace, making it impractical unless the keyspace is small. [5] The two major approaches for implementing dictionaries are a hash table or a search tree. [3] [4] [5] [6]

  4. List comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.

  5. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    A small phone book as a hash table. In computer science, a hash table is a data structure that implements an associative array, also called a dictionary or simply map; an associative array is an abstract data type that maps keys to values. [2]

  6. Algebraic data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_data_type

    One of the most common examples of an algebraic data type is the singly linked list. A list type is a sum type with two variants, Nil for an empty list and Cons x xs for the combination of a new element x with a list xs to create a new list. Here is an example of how a singly linked list would be declared in Haskell:

  7. Association list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_list

    The disadvantage of association lists is that the time to search is O(), where n is the length of the list. [3] For large lists, this may be much slower than the times that can be obtained by representing an associative array as a binary search tree or as a hash table.

  8. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.

  9. Pseudocode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudocode

    Pseudocode is commonly used in textbooks and scientific publications related to computer science and numerical computation to describe algorithms in a way that is accessible to programmers regardless of their familiarity with specific programming languages.
