  2. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  3. Impromptu speaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impromptu_speaking

    The speaker is heavily encouraged to use examples (e.g. historical events) in the "body" of their speech to support their argument. [5] Advanced speakers often use theories in conjunction with examples that illustrate them. As with any competitive speech, the speaker is expected to offer a clear and defined structure in their speech. [5]

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    The prefix Py-is used to show that something is related to Python. Examples of the use of this prefix in names of Python applications or libraries include Pygame, a binding of Simple DirectMedia Layer to Python (commonly used to create games); PyQt and PyGTK, which bind Qt and GTK to Python respectively; and PyPy, a Python implementation ...

  5. Minimalist program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimalist_program

    Adjunction: Before the introduction of bare phrase structure, adjuncts did not alter information about bar-level, category information, or the target's (located in the adjoined structure) head. [19] An example of adjunction using the X-bar theory notation is given below for the sentence Luna bought the purse yesterday.

  6. Merge (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_(linguistics)

    This interaction of additional semantic features with argument structure requires a device that can relate two non-sister nodes in a sentence to an earlier step in the derivation of a phrasal structure. Withal, referring to the history of the derivation of a phrase structure cannot be conveyed using a context-free phrase structure grammar.

  7. Impulse response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_response

    The impulse response of a linear transformation is the image of Dirac's delta function under the transformation, analogous to the fundamental solution of a partial differential operator. It is usually easier to analyze systems using transfer functions as opposed to impulse responses. The transfer function is the Laplace transform of the impulse ...

  8. Argument of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_of_a_function

    The number of arguments that a function takes is called the arity of the function. A function that takes a single argument as input, such as () =, is called a unary function. A function of two or more variables is considered to have a domain consisting of ordered pairs or tuples of argument values. The argument of a circular function is an angle.

  9. Argumentation scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentation_scheme

    The premises are the grounds given by the speaker or writer for the hearer or reader to accept the conclusion as true or as provisionally true (regarded as true for now). An argumentation scheme's definition is not itself an argument, but represents the structure of an argument of a certain type.
