  2. Comparison of C Sharp and Java - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_C_Sharp_and_Java

    C#, unlike Java, allows the use of lambda functions as a way to define special data structures called expression trees. Whether they are seen as an executable function or as a data structure depends on compiler type inference and what type of variable or parameter they are assigned or cast to.

  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. Primitive data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_data_type

    In Visual Basic .NET, the primitive data types consist of 4 integral types, 2 floating-point types, a 16-byte decimal type, a Boolean type, a date/time type, a Unicode character type, and a Unicode string type. [21]

  5. Leap year problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_year_problem

    The following Windows C++ code is an example of a Category 1 leap year bug. It will work properly until the current date becomes February 29 of a leap year. Then, it will modify st to represent February 29 of a common year, a date which does not actually exist. Passing st to any function that accepts a SYSTEMTIME struct as a parameter will ...

  6. Windows Runtime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Runtime

    When calling a Windows Runtime asynchronous function, the task is started on another thread or process and the function returns immediately, freeing the app to perform other tasks while waiting for results. [21] The asynchronous model requires new programming language constructs. Each language provides their own way to consume asynchronous APIs ...

  7. C Sharp (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    C# (/ ˌ s iː ˈ ʃ ɑːr p / see SHARP) [b] is a general-purpose high-level programming language supporting multiple paradigms.C# encompasses static typing, [16]: 4 strong typing, lexically scoped, imperative, declarative, functional, generic, [16]: 22 object-oriented (class-based), and component-oriented programming disciplines.

  8. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports a wide variety of string operations. Strings in Python are immutable, so a string operation such as a substitution of characters, that in other programming languages might alter the string in place, returns a new string in Python. Performance considerations sometimes push for using special techniques in programs that modify ...

  9. Foreign function interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_function_interface

    A foreign function interface (FFI) is a mechanism by which a program written in one programming language can call routines or make use of services written or compiled in another one. An FFI is often used in contexts where calls are made into a binary dynamic-link library.
