    The Python code can be used to encrypt and decrypt a file or any bytestream. ... break random_ch = prng. next_byte & 0xFF g. write (chr (ord (input_ch) ^ random_ch)) ...

  3. Comparison of Pascal and C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Pascal_and_C

    In Pascal, characters and integers are distinct types. The inbuilt compiler functions ord() and chr() can be used to typecast single characters to the corresponding integer value of the character set in use, and vice versa. e.g. on systems using the ASCII character set ord('1') = 49 and chr(9) is a TAB character.

  4. Constraint Handling Rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_Handling_Rules

    Then, by applying the antisymmetry rule, A leq C and C leq A are removed and replaced by A = C. Now the antisymmetry rule becomes applicable on the first two constraints of the original query. Now all CHR constraints are eliminated, so no further rules can be applied, and the answer A = B, A = C is returned: CHR has correctly inferred that all ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_cipher

    In cryptography, the simple XOR cipher is a type of additive cipher, [1] an encryption algorithm that operates according to the principles: . A 0 = A, A A = 0, A B = B A, (A B) C = A (B C),

  6. Naming convention (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_convention...

    The two characters commonly used for this purpose are the hyphen ("-") and the underscore ("_"); e.g., the two-word name "two words" would be represented as "two-words" or "two_words". The hyphen is used by nearly all programmers writing COBOL (1959), Forth (1970), and Lisp (1958); it is also common in Unix for commands and packages, and is ...

  7. Bell character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_character

    In the programming language C (created in 1972), and in many languages influenced by it such as Python, the bell character can be placed in a string or character constant with \a. 'a' stands for "alert" or "audible" and was chosen because \b was already used for the backspace character. [4]

  8. Page break - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_break

    This convention is predominantly used in Lisp code, and is also seen in C and Python source code. GNU Coding Standards require such form feeds in C. [ 2 ] In Usenet , the form feed character is used by several newsreaders as a "spoiler character", causing them to automatically hide the following text until prompted, as a way to prevent spoilers ...

  9. String literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_literal

    For example, in Python, raw strings are preceded by an r or R – compare 'C:\\Windows' with r'C:\Windows' (though, a Python raw string cannot end in an odd number of backslashes). Python 2 also distinguishes two types of strings: 8-bit ASCII ("bytes") strings (the default), explicitly indicated with a b or B prefix, and Unicode strings ...
