  2. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    Note that 1 represents equality in the last line above. This odd behavior is caused by an implicit conversion of i_value to float when it is compared with f_value. The conversion causes loss of precision, which makes the values equal before the comparison. Important takeaways: float to int causes truncation, i.e., removal of the fractional part.

  3. Variable-length array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_array

    In computer programming, a variable-length array (VLA), also called variable-sized or runtime-sized, is an array data structure whose length is determined at runtime, instead of at compile time. [1] In the language C , the VLA is said to have a variably modified data type that depends on a value (see Dependent type ).

  4. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    The standard type hierarchy of Python 3. In computer science and computer programming, a data type (or simply type) is a collection or grouping of data values, usually specified by a set of possible values, a set of allowed operations on these values, and/or a representation of these values as machine types. [1]

  5. Arbitrary-precision arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary-precision_arithmetic

    Rather than storing values as a fixed number of bits related to the size of the processor register, these implementations typically use variable-length arrays of digits. Arbitrary precision is used in applications where the speed of arithmetic is not a limiting factor, or where precise results with very large numbers are required.

  6. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(computer_science)

    The length of a string can also be stored explicitly, for example by prefixing the string with the length as a byte value. This convention is used in many Pascal dialects; as a consequence, some people call such a string a Pascal string or P-string. Storing the string length as byte limits the maximum string length to 255.

  7. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    There are two main types of variable-expanding algorithms for variable interpolation: [3] Replace and expand placeholders: creating a new string from the original one, by find–replace operations. Find variable reference (placeholder), replace it by its variable value. This algorithm offers no cache strategy.

  8. List of CIL instructions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_CIL_instructions

    Push the length (of type native unsigned int) of array on the stack. Object model instruction 0xFE 0x0C ldloc <uint16 (indx)> Load local variable of index indx onto stack. Base instruction 0x06 ldloc.0: Load local variable 0 onto stack. Base instruction 0x07 ldloc.1: Load local variable 1 onto stack. Base instruction 0x08 ldloc.2

  9. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in bold blue font. The syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++. Unlike C++, Java has no global functions or variables, but has data members which are also regarded as global variables.
