  2. 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 ...

  3. Exception handling syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_handling_syntax

    C does not provide direct support to exception handling: it is the programmer's responsibility to prevent errors in the first place and test return values from the functions.

  4. Exception handling (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_handling...

    Python and Ruby also permit a clause (else) that is used in case no exception occurred before the end of the handler's scope was reached. In its whole, exception handling code might look like this (in Java-like pseudocode):

  5. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    Since 7 October 2024, Python 3.13 is the latest stable release, and it and, for few more months, 3.12 are the only releases with active support including for bug fixes (as opposed to just for security) and Python 3.9, [55] is the oldest supported version of Python (albeit in the 'security support' phase), due to Python 3.8 reaching end-of-life.

  6. Null-terminated string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null-terminated_string

    Some systems use "modified UTF-8" which encodes NUL as two non-zero bytes (0xC0, 0x80) and thus allow all possible strings to be stored. This is not allowed by the UTF-8 standard, because it is an overlong encoding, and it is seen as a security risk. Some other byte may be used as end of string instead, like 0xFE or 0xFF, which are not used in ...

  7. Uncontrolled format string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncontrolled_format_string

    The first version interprets buffer as a format string, and parses any formatting instructions it may contain. The second version simply prints a string to the screen, as the programmer intended. Both versions behave identically in the absence of format specifiers in the string, which makes it easy for the mistake to go unnoticed by the developer.

  8. Terminal and nonterminal symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_and_nonterminal...

    A formal language defined or generated by a particular grammar is the set of strings that can be produced by the grammar and that consist only of terminal symbols. Diagram 1 illustrates a string that can be produced with this grammar. Diagram 1. The string Б Б Б Б was formed by the grammar defined by the given production rules. This grammar ...

  9. Early stopping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_stopping

    Early stopping rules provide guidance as to how many iterations can be run before the learner begins to over-fit. Early stopping rules have been employed in many different machine learning methods, with varying amounts of theoretical foundation.
