  2. Standard streams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_streams

    Standard input is a stream from which a program reads its input data. The program requests data transfers by use of the read operation. Not all programs require stream input. For example, the dir and ls programs (which display file names contained in a directory) may take command-line arguments, but perform their operations without any stream ...

    An MS-DOS command line, illustrating parsing into command and arguments. A command-line argument or parameter is an item of information provided to a program when it is started. [23] A program can have many command-line arguments that identify sources or destinations of information, or that alter the operation of the program.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python 2 (and most other programming languages), unless explicitly requested, x / y performed integer division, returning a float only if either input was a float. However, because Python is a dynamically-typed language, it was not always possible to tell which operation was being performed, which often led to subtle bugs, thus prompting the ...

  5. Configuration file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_file

    This was a plain text file with simple key–value pairs (e.g. DEVICEHIGH=C:\\DOS\\ANSI.SYS) until MS-DOS 6, which introduced an INI-file style format. There was also a standard plain text batch file named AUTOEXEC.BAT that ran a series of commands on boot. Both these files were retained up to Windows 98SE, which still ran on top of MS-DOS.

  6. Delimiter-separated values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delimiter-separated_values

    A delimited text file is a text file used to store data, in which each line represents a single book, company, or other thing, and each line has fields separated by the delimiter. [3] Compared to the kind of flat file that uses spaces to force every field to the same width, a delimited file has the advantage of allowing field values of any length.

  7. Interpreter (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreter_(computing)

    The Makefile lists compiler and linker command lines and program source code files, but might take a simple command line menu input (e.g. "Make 3") which selects the third group (set) of instructions then issues the commands to the compiler, and linker feeding the specified source code files.

PowerShell, a command processor based on .NET; Hamilton C shell, a clone of the Unix C shell by Hamilton Laboratories; Take Command Console (4NT), a clone of CMD.EXE with added features by JP Software; Take Command, a newer incarnation of 4NT

  9. Syntax (programming languages) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntax_(programming_languages)

    Parse tree of Python code with inset tokenization. The syntax of textual programming languages is usually defined using a combination of regular expressions (for lexical structure) and Backus–Naur form (a metalanguage for grammatical structure) to inductively specify syntactic categories (nonterminal) and terminal symbols.
