  2. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    Timsort was designed to take advantage of runs of consecutive ordered elements that already exist in most real-world data, natural runs. It iterates over the data collecting elements into runs and simultaneously putting those runs in a stack. Whenever the runs on the top of the stack match a merge criterion, they are merged. This goes on until ...

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python, non-innermost-local and not-declared-global accessible names are all aliases. Among dynamically-typed languages, Python is moderately type-checked. Implicit conversion is defined for numeric types (as well as booleans ), so one may validly multiply a complex number by an integer (for instance) without explicit casting .

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python's name is derived from the British comedy group Monty Python, whom Python creator Guido van Rossum enjoyed while developing the language. Monty Python references appear frequently in Python code and culture; [190] for example, the metasyntactic variables often used in Python literature are spam and eggs instead of the traditional foo and ...

  5. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    In Python, if a name is intended to be "private", it is prefixed by one or two underscores. Private variables are enforced in Python only by convention. Names can also be suffixed with an underscore to prevent conflict with Python keywords. Prefixing with double underscores changes behaviour in classes with regard to name mangling.

  6. Lazy deletion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_deletion

    To improve this, when an element is searched and found in the table, the element is relocated to the first location marked for deletion that was probed during the search. Instead of finding an element to relocate when the deletion occurs, the relocation occurs lazily during the next search. [2] [3]

  7. Code refactoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring

    Code refactoring activities are secured with software intelligence when using tools and techniques providing data about algorithms and sequences of code execution. [10] Providing a comprehensible format for the inner-state of software system structure, data models, and intra-components dependencies is a critical element to form a high-level ...

  8. Binary heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_heap

    Swap this element with the last element. Remove the last element after the swap. Down-heapify or up-heapify to restore the heap property. In a max-heap (min-heap), up-heapify is only required when the new key of element is greater (smaller) than the previous one because only the heap-property of the parent element might be violated.

  9. Name binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_binding

    In programming languages, name binding is the association of entities (data and/or code) with identifiers. [1] An identifier bound to an object is said to reference that object. Machine languages have no built-in notion of identifiers, but name-object bindings as a service and notation for the programmer is implemented by programming languages.
