  2. Varchar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varchar

    Varchar fields can be of any size up to a limit, which varies by databases: an Oracle 11g database has a limit of 4000 bytes, [1] a MySQL 5.7 database has a limit of 65,535 bytes (for the entire row) [2] and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 has a limit of 8000 bytes (unless varchar(max) is used, which has a maximum storage capacity of 2 gigabytes). [3]

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports a wide variety of string operations. Strings in Python are immutable, so a string operation such as a substitution of characters, that in other programming languages might alter the string in place, returns a new string in Python. Performance considerations sometimes push for using special techniques in programs that modify ...

  4. Character literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_literal

    A character literal is a type of literal in programming for the representation of a single character's value within the source code of a computer program. Languages that have a dedicated character data type generally include character literals; these include C , C++ , Java , [ 1 ] and Visual Basic . [ 2 ]

  5. UTF-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    Only a small subset of possible byte strings are error-free UTF-8: several bytes cannot appear; a byte with the high bit set cannot be alone; and in a truly random string a byte with a high bit set has only a 1 ⁄ 15 chance of starting a valid UTF-8 character. This has the (possibly unintended) consequence of making it easy to detect if a ...

  6. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    String functions are used in computer programming languages to manipulate a string or query information about a string (some do both).. Most programming languages that have a string datatype will have some string functions although there may be other low-level ways within each language to handle strings directly.

  7. Charset detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charset_detection

    Character encoding detection, charset detection, or code page detection is the process of heuristically guessing the character encoding of a series of bytes that represent text. The technique is recognised to be unreliable [ 1 ] and is only used when specific metadata , such as a HTTP Content-Type: header is either not available, or is assumed ...

  8. SQLAlchemy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQLAlchemy

    SQLAlchemy is an open-source Python library that provides an SQL toolkit (called "SQLAlchemy Core") and an Object Relational Mapper (ORM) for database interactions. It allows developers to work with databases using Python objects, enabling efficient and flexible database access.

  9. Variable-width encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-width_encoding

    For example, the four character string "I♥NY" is encoded in UTF-8 like this (shown as hexadecimal byte values): 49 E2 99 A5 4E 59. Of the six units in that sequence, 49, 4E, and 59 are singletons (for I, N, and Y), E2 is a lead unit and 99 and A5 are trail units. The heart symbol is represented by the combination of the lead unit and the two ...
