  2. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

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

    Python. The use of the triple-quotes to comment-out lines of source, does not actually form a comment. [21] The enclosed text becomes a string literal, which Python usually ignores (except when it is the first statement in the body of a module, class or function; see docstring). Elixir

  3. 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.

  4. CoffeeScript - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CoffeeScript

    CoffeeScript is a programming language that compiles to JavaScript. It adds syntactic sugar inspired by Ruby, Python, and Haskell in an effort to enhance JavaScript's brevity and readability. [4] Specific additional features include list comprehension and destructuring assignment.

  5. Comparison of programming languages (basic instructions)

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

    Generally, var, var, or var is how variable names or other non-literal values to be interpreted by the reader are represented. The rest is literal code. Guillemets (« and ») enclose optional sections.

  6. Comparison of parser generators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_parser...

    A classic example of a problem which a regular grammar cannot handle is the question of whether a given string contains correctly nested parentheses. (This is typically handled by a Chomsky Type 2 grammar, also termed a context-free grammar .)

  7. Syntactic sugar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_sugar

    Python list comprehensions (such as [x*x for x in range(10)] for a list of squares) and decorators (such as @staticmethod). In Haskell, a string, denoted in quotation marks, is semantically equivalent to a list of characters. An optional language extension OverloadedStrings allows string literals to produce other types of values, such as Text ...

  8. Nested function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_function

    Nested functions can be used for unstructured control flow, by using the return statement for general unstructured control flow.This can be used for finer-grained control than is possible with other built-in features of the language – for example, it can allow early termination of a for loop if break is not available, or early termination of a nested for loop if a multi-level break or ...

  9. Rope (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_(data_structure)

    Definition: Split (i, S): split the string S into two new strings S 1 and S 2, S 1 = C 1, ..., C i and S 2 = C i + 1, ..., C m. Time complexity: ⁠ (⁡) ⁠ There are two cases that must be dealt with: The split point is at the end of a string (i.e. after the last character of a leaf node) The split point is in the middle of a string.
