  2. C++ string handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++_string_handling

    C++ Standard Library. The C++ programming language has support for string handling, mostly implemented in its standard library. The language standard specifies several string types, some inherited from C, some designed to make use of the language's features, such as classes and RAII. The most-used of these is std::string.

  3. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_structure)

    In computer science, an array is a data structure consisting of a collection of elements (values or variables), of same memory size, each identified by at least one array index or key. An array is stored such that the position of each element can be computed from its index tuple by a mathematical formula. [1][2][3] The simplest type of data ...

  4. Prefix sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_sum

    Prefix sums are trivial to compute in sequential models of computation, by using the formula y i = y i − 1 + x i to compute each output value in sequence order. However, despite their ease of computation, prefix sums are a useful primitive in certain algorithms such as counting sort, [1] [2] and they form the basis of the scan higher-order function in functional programming languages.

  5. Array (data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_type)

    In computer science, array is a data type that represents a collection of elements (values or variables), each selected by one or more indices (identifying keys) that can be computed at run time during program execution. Such a collection is usually called an array variable or array value. [1] By analogy with the mathematical concepts vector ...

  6. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer science, a pointer is an object in many programming languages that stores a memory address. This can be that of another value located in computer memory, or in some cases, that of memory-mapped computer hardware. A pointer references a location in memory, and obtaining the value stored at that location is known as dereferencing the ...

  7. Input/output (C++) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input/output_(C++)

    In the C++ programming language, input/output library refers to a family of class templates and supporting functions in the C++ Standard Library that implement stream-based input/output capabilities. [1][2] It is an object-oriented alternative to C's FILE -based streams from the C standard library. [3][4]

  8. C dynamic memory allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_dynamic_memory_allocation

    v. t. e. C dynamic memory allocation refers to performing manual memory management for dynamic memory allocation in the C programming language via a group of functions in the C standard library, namely malloc, realloc, calloc, aligned_alloc and free. [1][2][3] The C++ programming language includes these functions; however, the operators new and ...

  9. C string handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_string_handling

    Definitions. A string is defined as a contiguous sequence of code units terminated by the first zero code unit (often called the NUL code unit). [1] This means a string cannot contain the zero code unit, as the first one seen marks the end of the string. The length of a string is the number of code units before the zero code unit. [1]
