  2. Serialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serialization

    Flow diagram. In computing, serialization (or serialisation, also referred to as pickling in Python) is the process of translating a data structure or object state into a format that can be stored (e.g. files in secondary storage devices, data buffers in primary storage devices) or transmitted (e.g. data streams over computer networks) and reconstructed later (possibly in a different computer ...

  3. Byte order mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark

    In UTF-16, a BOM (U+FEFF) may be placed as the first bytes of a file or character stream to indicate the endianness (byte order) of all the 16-bit code units of the file or stream. If an attempt is made to read this stream with the wrong endianness, the bytes will be swapped, thus delivering the character U+FFFE , which is defined by Unicode as ...

  4. Comma-separated values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

    Comma separated files are used for the interchange of database information between machines of two different architectures. The plain-text character of CSV files largely avoids incompatibilities such as byte-order and word size. The files are largely human-readable, so it is easier to deal with them in the absence of perfect documentation or ...

  5. JSON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON

    JSON Schema specifies a JSON-based format to define the structure of JSON data for validation, documentation, and interaction control. It provides a contract for the JSON data required by a given application and how that data can be modified. [ 29 ]

  6. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    This is most commonly implemented in the underlying object model, like .Net or Cocoa, which includes standard functions that convert the internal data into text. The program can create a complete text representation of any group of objects by calling these methods, which are almost always already implemented in the base associative array class ...

  7. JSON streaming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_streaming

    Line-delimited JSON works very well with traditional line-oriented tools. Concatenated JSON works with pretty-printed JSON but requires more effort and complexity to parse. It doesn't work well with traditional line-oriented tools. Concatenated JSON streaming is a superset of line-delimited JSON streaming.

  8. Here document - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_document

    In PowerShell, here documents are referred to as here-strings. A here-string is a string which starts with an open delimiter (@" or @') and ends with a close delimiter ("@ or '@) on a line by itself, which terminates the string. All characters between the open and close delimiter are considered the string literal.

  9. BSON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSON

    The name "BSON" is based on the term JSON and stands for "Binary JSON". [2] It is a binary form for representing simple or complex data structures including associative arrays (also known as name-value pairs), integer indexed arrays, and a suite of fundamental scalar types. BSON originated in 2009 at MongoDB. Several scalar data types are of ...
