  2. Name mangling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

    Python's runtime does not restrict access to such attributes, the mangling only prevents name collisions if a derived class defines an attribute with the same name. On encountering name mangled attributes, Python transforms these names by prepending a single underscore and the name of the enclosing class, for example: >>>

  3. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text.More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters.These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP) or is not 8-bit clean.

  4. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Naming_convention_(programming)

    In computer programming, a naming convention is a set of rules for choosing the character sequence to be used for identifiers which denote variables, types, functions, and other entities in source code and documentation. Reasons for using a naming convention (as opposed to allowing programmers to choose any character sequence) include the ...

  5. Character encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_encoding

    Common examples of character encoding systems include Morse code, the Baudot code, the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) and Unicode. Unicode, a well-defined and extensible encoding system, has replaced most earlier character encodings, but the path of code development to the present is fairly well known.

  6. UTF-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    In November 2003, UTF-8 was restricted by RFC 3629 to match the constraints of the UTF-16 character encoding: explicitly prohibiting code points corresponding to the high and low surrogate characters removed more than 3% of the three-byte sequences, and ending at U+10FFFF removed more than 48% of the four-byte sequences and all five- and six ...

  7. UTF-16 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-16

    The Joliet file system, used in CD-ROM media, encodes file names using UCS-2BE (up to sixty-four Unicode characters per file name). Python version 2.0 officially only used UCS-2 internally, but the UTF-8 decoder to "Unicode" produced correct UTF-16. There was also the ability to compile Python so that it used UTF-32 internally, this was ...

  8. Bencode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bencode

    Bencode uses ASCII characters as delimiters and digits to encode data structures in a simple and compact format. Integers are encoded as i<base10 integer>e. The integer is encoded in base 10 and may be negative (indicated by a leading hyphen-minus). Leading zeros are not allowed unless the integer is zero. Examples: Zero is encoded as i0e.

  9. Directive (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_(programming)

    In Ruby, interpreter directives are referred to as pragmas and are specified by top-of-file comments that follow a key: value notation. For example, coding: UTF-8 indicates that the file is encoded via the UTF-8 character encoding. In C#, compiler directives are called pre-processing directives. There are a number of different compiler ...
