  2. Matching wildcards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_wildcards

    In computer science, an algorithm for matching wildcards (also known as globbing) is useful in comparing text strings that may contain wildcard syntax. [1] Common uses of these algorithms include command-line interfaces, e.g. the Bourne shell [2] or Microsoft Windows command-line [3] or text editor or file manager, as well as the interfaces for some search engines [4] and databases. [5]

  3. Krauss wildcard-matching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krauss_wildcard-matching...

    In computer science, the Krauss wildcard-matching algorithm is a pattern matching algorithm. Based on the wildcard syntax in common use, e.g. in the Microsoft Windows command-line interface, the algorithm provides a non-recursive mechanism for matching patterns in software applications, based on syntax simpler than that typically offered by regular expressions.

  4. Pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_matching

    In Haskell (unlike at least Hope), patterns are tried in order so the first definition still applies in the very specific case of the input being 0, while for any other argument the function returns n * f (n-1) with n being the argument. The wildcard pattern (often written as _) is also simple: like a variable name, it matches any value, but ...

  5. wildmat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildmat

    Based on the wildcard syntax already used in the Bourne shell, wildmat provides a uniform mechanism for matching patterns across applications with simpler syntax than that typically offered by regular expressions. Patterns are implicitly anchored at the beginning and end of each string when testing for a match.

  6. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    IronPython allows running Python 2.7 programs (and an alpha, released in 2021, is also available for "Python 3.4, although features and behaviors from later versions may be included" [170]) on the .NET Common Language Runtime. [171] Jython compiles Python 2.7 to Java bytecode, allowing the use of the Java libraries from a Python program. [172]

    Intitle finds a word or phrase in a pagename. Like a word or phrase search stemming and fuzzy searches can apply. A word input can be put in double "quotes" to turn off stemming. A phrase input can use greyspace to turn on stemming. A single word input can suffix the tilde ~ character for a fuzzy search.

  8. Proximity search (text) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proximity_search_(text)

    [6] [7] Bing supports NEAR. [8] The syntax is keyword1 near:n keyword2 where n=the number of maximum separating words. Ordered search within the Google and Yahoo! search engines is possible using the asterisk (*) full-word wildcards: in Google this matches one or more words, [9] and an in Yahoo! Search this matches exactly one word. [10] (This ...

  9. Word problem (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_(mathematics)

    The word problem for an algebra is then to determine, given two expressions (words) involving the generators and operations, whether they represent the same element of the algebra modulo the identities. The word problems for groups and semigroups can be phrased as word problems for algebras. [1]
