  2. Mask generation function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mask_generation_function

    Mask generation functions are deterministic; the octet string output is completely determined by the input octet string. The output of a mask generation function should be pseudorandom, that is, if the seed to the function is unknown, it should be infeasible to distinguish the output from a truly random string. [1]

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python, functions are first-class objects that can be created and passed around dynamically. Python's limited support for anonymous functions is the lambda construct. An example is the anonymous function which squares its input, called with the argument of 5:

  5. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(computer...

    A built-in function, or builtin function, or intrinsic function, is a function for which the compiler generates code at compile time or provides in a way other than for other functions. [23] A built-in function does not need to be defined like other functions since it is built in to the programming language. [24]

  6. Function object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_object

    In Python, functions are first-class objects, just like strings, numbers, lists etc. This feature eliminates the need to write a function object in many cases. Any object with a __call__() method can be called using function-call syntax. An example is this accumulator class (based on Paul Graham's study on programming language syntax and ...

  7. Unary operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unary_operation

    In mathematics, a unary operation is an operation with only one operand, i.e. a single input. [1] This is in contrast to binary operations , which use two operands. [ 2 ] An example is any function ⁠ f : A → A {\displaystyle f:A\rightarrow A} ⁠ , where A is a set ; the function ⁠ f {\displaystyle f} ⁠ is a unary operation on A .

  8. Iterator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterator

    An example of a Python generator returning an iterator for the Fibonacci numbers using Python's yield statement follows: def fibonacci ( limit ): a , b = 0 , 1 for _ in range ( limit ): yield a a , b = b , a + b for number in fibonacci ( 100 ): # The generator constructs an iterator print ( number )

  9. Parameter (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parameter_(computer...

    Output and input/output parameters prevent function composition, since the output is stored in variables, rather than in the value of an expression. Thus one must initially declare a variable, and then each step of a chain of functions must be a separate statement. For example, in C++ the following function composition:
