  2. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-precision_floating...

    On Java before version 1.2, every implementation had to be IEEE 754 compliant. Version 1.2 allowed implementations to bring extra precision in intermediate computations for platforms like x87. Thus a modifier strictfp was introduced to enforce strict IEEE 754 computations. Strict floating point has been restored in Java 17. [6]

  3. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    For function that manipulate strings, modern object-oriented languages, like C# and Java have immutable strings and return a copy (in newly allocated dynamic memory), while others, like C manipulate the original string unless the programmer copies data to a new string.

  4. Type signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_signature

    In the Java virtual machine, internal type signatures are used to identify methods and classes at the level of the virtual machine code. Example: The method String String. substring (int, int) is represented in bytecode as Ljava / lang / String. substring (II) Ljava / lang / String;. The signature of the main method looks like this: [2]

  5. Comparison of programming languages (strings) - Wikipedia

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

    C (along with Python) allows juxtaposition for string literals, however, for strings stored as character arrays, the strcat function must be used. COBOL uses the STRING statement to concatenate string variables. MATLAB and Octave use the syntax "[x y]" to concatenate x and y. Visual Basic and Visual Basic .NET can also use the "+" sign but at ...

  6. Quadruple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple-precision...

    (Quadruple-precision REAL*16 is supported by the Intel Fortran Compiler [10] and by the GNU Fortran compiler [11] on x86, x86-64, and Itanium architectures, for example.) For the C programming language, ISO/IEC TS 18661-3 (floating-point extensions for C, interchange and extended types) specifies _Float128 as the type implementing the IEEE 754 ...

    An example of Python code and indentation Example of C# code with curly braces and semicolons Python is meant to be an easily readable language. Its formatting is visually uncluttered and often uses English keywords where other languages use punctuation.

  8. 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]
