    Fortran 77: A non-comment line is a continuation of the prior non-comment line if any non-space character appears in column 6. Comment lines cannot be continued. COBOL: String constants may be continued by not ending the original string in a PICTURE clause with ', then inserting a -in column 7 (same position as the * for comment is used.)

  3. Enumerated type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enumerated_type

    If a value (termed a raw value) is provided for each enumeration case, the value can be a string, a character, or a value of any integer or floating-point type. Alternatively, enumeration cases can specify associated values of any type to be stored along with each different case value, much as unions or variants do in other languages.

  4. List of programming languages by type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming...

    Each bit pattern causes the circuits in the CPU to execute one of the fundamental operations of the hardware. The activation of specific electrical inputs (e.g., CPU package pins for microprocessors), and logical settings for CPU state values, control the processor's computation.

  5. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    A control break is a value change detection method used within ordinary loops to trigger processing for groups of values. Values are monitored within the loop and a change diverts program flow to the handling of the group event associated with them.

  6. 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.

  7. Semicolon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicolon

    The semicolon is often used to separate elements of a string of text. For example, multiple e-mail addresses in the "To" field in some e-mail clients have to be delimited by a semicolon. In Microsoft Excel , the semicolon is used as a list separator, especially in cases where the decimal separator is a comma, such as 0,32; 3,14; 4,50 , instead ...

  8. Boolean data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_data_type

    [1] [2] Indeed, a Boolean variable may be regarded (and implemented) as a numerical variable with one binary digit , or as a bit string of length one, which can store only two values. The implementation of Booleans in computers are most likely represented as a full word , rather than a bit; this is usually due to the ways computers transfer ...

  9. MUMPS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUMPS

    In IF commands and other syntax that has expressions evaluated as conditions, any string value is evaluated as a numeric value and, if that is a nonzero value, then it is interpreted as True. a<b yields 1 if a is less than b, 0 otherwise. Declarations None. All variables are dynamically created at the first time a value is assigned. Lines
