  2. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    For example, one could define a dictionary having a string "toast" mapped to the integer 42 or vice versa. The keys in a dictionary must be of an immutable Python type, such as an integer or a string, because under the hood they are implemented via a hash function. This makes for much faster lookup times, but requires keys not change.

  3. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    String functions are used in computer programming languages to manipulate a string or query information about a string (some do both).. Most programming languages that have a string datatype will have some string functions although there may be other low-level ways within each language to handle strings directly.

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    Numba is used from Python, as a tool (enabled by adding a decorator to relevant Python code), a JIT compiler that translates a subset of Python and NumPy code into fast machine code. Pythran compiles a subset of Python 3 to C++ . [165] RPython can be compiled to C, and is used to build the PyPy interpreter of Python.

  5. Programming language implementation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_language...

    Programming languages can have multiple implementations. Different implementations can be written in different languages and can use different methods to compile or interpret code. For example, implementations of Python include: [9] CPython, the reference implementation of Python; IronPython, an implementation targeting the .NET Framework ...

    32-bit compilers emit, respectively: _f _g@4 @h@4 In the stdcall and fastcall mangling schemes, the function is encoded as _name@X and @name@X respectively, where X is the number of bytes, in decimal, of the argument(s) in the parameter list (including those passed in registers, for fastcall).

  8. Method (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_(computer_programming)

    Method overloading, on the other hand, refers to differentiating the code used to handle a message based on the parameters of the method. If one views the receiving object as the first parameter in any method then overriding is just a special case of overloading where the selection is based only on the first argument.

  9. Path expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_expression

    XPath is an example of a path expression language. In concurrency control, path expressions are a mechanism for expressing permitted sequences of execution. For example, a path expression like "{read}, write" might specify that either multiple simultaneous executions of read or a single execution of write but not both are allowed at any point ...
