  2. List (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_(abstract_data_type)

    Lists are typically implemented either as linked lists (either singly or doubly linked) or as arrays, usually variable length or dynamic arrays.. The standard way of implementing lists, originating with the programming language Lisp, is to have each element of the list contain both its value and a pointer indicating the location of the next element in the list.

  3. Dynamic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_array

    However, in languages like Python or Java that enforce reference semantics, the dynamic array generally will not store the actual data, but rather it will store references to the data that resides in other areas of memory. In this case, accessing items in the array sequentially will actually involve accessing multiple non-contiguous areas of ...

    the Add method, which adds a key and value and throws an exception if the key already exists in the dictionary; assigning to the indexer, which overwrites any existing value, if present; and assigning to the backing property of the indexer, for which the indexer is syntactic sugar (not applicable to C#, see F# or VB.NET examples).

  5. Array programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_programming

    The cross product operation is an example of a vector rank function because it operates on vectors, not scalars. Matrix multiplication is an example of a 2-rank function, because it operates on 2-dimensional objects (matrices). Collapse operators reduce the dimensionality of an input data array by one or more dimensions. For example, summing ...

  6. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

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

    Some array data structures do not reallocate storage, but do store a count of the number of elements of the array in use, called the count or size. This effectively makes the array a dynamic array with a fixed maximum size or capacity; Pascal strings are examples of this.

  7. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    More generally, there are d! possible orders for a given array, one for each permutation of dimensions (with row-major and column-order just 2 special cases), although the lists of stride values are not necessarily permutations of each other, e.g., in the 2-by-3 example above, the strides are (3,1) for row-major and (1,2) for column-major.

  8. Linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_list

    CDR coding does both these as well, by replacing references with the actual data referenced, which extends off the end of the referencing record. A good example that highlights the pros and cons of using dynamic arrays vs. linked lists is by implementing a program that resolves the Josephus problem. The Josephus problem is an election method ...
