  2. File URI scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme

    The single slash between host and path denotes the start of the local-path part of the URI and must be present. [5] A valid file URI must therefore begin with either file:/path (no hostname), file:///path (empty hostname), or file://hostname/path. file://path (i.e. two slashes, without a hostname) is never correct, but is often used.

  3. Path (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(computing)

    A path (or filepath, file path, pathname, or similar) is a string of characters used to uniquely identify a location in a directory structure. It is composed by following the directory tree hierarchy in which components, separated by a delimiting character, represent each directory.

  4. Standard streams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_streams

    For example, the file rename command (variously called mv, move, or ren) is silent on success. Unless redirected , standard output is inherited from the parent process. In the case of an interactive shell, that is usually the text terminal which initiated the program.

  5. Fully qualified name - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully_qualified_name

    In DOS, the name is still relative to the root directory of the current disk, so to get a fully qualified file name, the file name must be prefixed with the drive letter and a colon, as in "C:\Users\Name\sample", where "C:" specifies the "C" drive. Also on the above systems, some programs such as the command-line shell will search a path for a ...

  6. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python's name is derived from the British comedy group Monty Python, whom Python creator Guido van Rossum enjoyed while developing the language. Monty Python references appear frequently in Python code and culture; [190] for example, the metasyntactic variables often used in Python literature are spam and eggs instead of the traditional foo and ...

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Despite the name, Python decorators are not an implementation of the decorator pattern. The decorator pattern is a design pattern used in statically-typed object-oriented programming languages to allow functionality to be added to objects at run time; Python decorators add functionality to functions and methods at definition time, and thus are ...

  8. file (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_(command)

    Ian Darwin's implementation adds -s 'special files', -k 'keep-going' or -r 'raw' (examples below), among many others. [6] The command tells only what the file looks like, not what it is (in the case where file looks at the content). It is easy to fool the program by putting a magic number into a file the content of which does not match it.

  9. Filename extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename_extension

    For example, it would be perfectly normal for a shell script to be reimplemented in Python or Ruby, and later in C or C++, all of which would change the name of the command were extensions used. Without extensions, a program always has the same extension-less name, with only the interpreter directive and/or magic number changing, and references ...
