  2. Comma-separated values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

    CSV is a delimited text file that uses a comma to separate values (many implementations of CSV import/export tools allow other separators to be used; for example, the use of a "Sep=^" row as the first row in the *.csv file will cause Excel to open the file expecting caret "^" to be the separator instead of comma ","). Simple CSV implementations ...

  3. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    To avoid this ambiguity, Pandas supports the syntax data.loc['a'] as an alternative way to filter using the index. Pandas also supports the syntax data.iloc[n], which always takes an integer n and returns the nth value, counting from 0. This allows a user to act as though the index is an array-like sequence of integers, regardless of how it's ...

  4. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    To reduce such index size, some systems allow including non-key fields in the index. Non-key fields are not themselves part of the index ordering but only included at the leaf level, allowing for a covering index with less overall index size. This can be done in SQL with CREATE INDEX my_index ON my_table (id) INCLUDE (name);. [8] [9]

  5. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_orientation

    Data orientation is the representation of tabular data in a linear memory model such as in-disk or in-memory.The two most common representations are column-oriented (columnar format) and row-oriented (row format).

  6. Inverted index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_index

    In computer science, an inverted index (also referred to as a postings list, postings file, or inverted file) is a database index storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a table, or in a document or a set of documents (named in contrast to a forward index, which maps from documents to content). [1]

  7. Search engine indexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_indexing

    The inverted index is a sparse matrix, since not all words are present in each document. To reduce computer storage memory requirements, it is stored differently from a two dimensional array. The index is similar to the term document matrices employed by latent semantic analysis. The inverted index can be considered a form of a hash table.

  8. B-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree

    In practice, if the main database is being frequently searched, the aux-aux index and much of the aux index may reside in a disk cache, so they would not incur a disk read. The B-tree remains the standard index implementation in almost all relational databases , and many nonrelational databases use them too.

  9. Web indexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_indexing

    Although an A-Z index could be used to index multiple sites, rather than the multiple pages of a single site, this is unusual. Metadata web indexing involves assigning keywords, description or phrases to web pages or web sites within a metadata tag (or "meta-tag") field, so that the web page or web site can be retrieved with a list.
