  2. 32-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/32-bit_computing

    A 32-bit register can store 2 32 different values. The range of integer values that can be stored in 32 bits depends on the integer representation used. With the two most common representations, the range is 0 through 4,294,967,295 (2 32 − 1) for representation as an binary number, and −2,147,483,648 (−2 31) through 2,147,483,647 (2 31 − 1) for representation as two's complement.

Shown are XML values that can be placed in XML elements and attributes.

  4. Double dabble - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_dabble

    Double dabble. In computer science, the double dabble algorithm is used to convert binary numbers into binary-coded decimal (BCD) notation. [1][2] It is also known as the shift-and-add -3 algorithm, and can be implemented using a small number of gates in computer hardware, but at the expense of high latency. [3]

  5. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    A floating-point variable can represent a wider range of numbers than a fixed-point variable of the same bit width at the cost of precision. A signed 32-bit integer variable has a maximum value of 2 31 − 1 = 2,147,483,647, whereas an IEEE 754 32-bit base-2 floating-point variable has a maximum value of (2 − 2 −23) × 2 127 ≈ 3.4028235 ...

  6. Software versioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning

    Software versioning. Software versioning is the process of assigning either unique version names or unique version numbers to unique states of computer software. Within a given version number category (e.g., major or minor), these numbers are generally assigned in increasing order and correspond to new developments in the software.

  7. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Python is a multi-paradigm programming language. Object-oriented programming and structured programming are fully supported, and many of their features support functional programming and aspect-oriented programming (including metaprogramming [73] and metaobjects). [74] Many other paradigms are supported via extensions, including design by ...

  8. Application binary interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_binary_interface

    In computer software, an application binary interface (ABI) is an interface between two binary program modules. Often, one of these modules is a library or operating system facility, and the other is a program that is being run by a user. An ABI defines how data structures or computational routines are accessed in machine code, which is a low ...

  9. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    Data type. In computer science and computer programming, a data type (or simply type) is a collection or grouping of data values, usually specified by a set of possible values, a set of allowed operations on these values, and/or a representation of these values as machine types. [1] A data type specification in a program constrains the possible ...
