  2. String literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_literal

    One of the oldest examples is in shell scripts, where single quotes indicate a raw string or "literal string", while double quotes have escape sequences and variable interpolation. For example, in Python, raw strings are preceded by an r or R – compare 'C:\\Windows' with r'C:\Windows' (though, a Python raw string cannot end in an odd number ...

  3. Variable-width encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-width_encoding

    (Some authors, notably in Microsoft documentation, use the term multibyte character set, which is a misnomer, because representation size is an attribute of the encoding, not of the character set.) Early variable-width encodings using less than a byte per character were sometimes used to pack English text into fewer bytes in adventure games for ...

  5. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    Two types of literal expression are usually offered: one with interpolation enabled, the other without. Non-interpolated strings may also escape sequences, in which case they are termed a raw string, though in other cases this is separate, yielding three classes of raw string, non-interpolated (but escaped) string, interpolated (and escaped) string.

  8. UTF-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    The default string primitive in Go, [50] Julia, Rust, Swift (since version 5), [51] and PyPy [52] uses UTF-8 internally in all cases. Python (since version 3.3) uses UTF-8 internally for Python C API extensions [53] [54] and sometimes for strings [53] [55] and a future version of Python is planned to store strings as UTF-8 by default.

  9. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    The choice of a variable name should be mnemonic — that is, designed to indicate to the casual observer the intent of its use. One-character variable names should be avoided except for temporary "throwaway" variables. Common names for temporary variables are i, j, k, m, and n for integers; c, d, and e for characters. int i;
