    // comments are allowed in Ion files using the double forward slash {key: "value", // key here is a symbol, it can also be a string as in JSON nums: 1 _000_000, // equivalent to 1000000, use of underscores with numbers is more readable 'A float value': 31415e-4, // key is a value that contains spaces "An int value":. int, annotated: age:: 35, // age here is the annotation to number 35 lists ...

  3. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    Existing Eiffel software uses the string classes (such as STRING_8) from the Eiffel libraries, but Eiffel software written for .NET must use the .NET string class (System.String) in many cases, for example when calling .NET methods which expect items of the .NET type to be passed as arguments. So, the conversion of these types back and forth ...

    [3] Instagram uses a modified version of the format, with 41 bits for a timestamp, 13 bits for a shard ID, and 10 bits for a sequence number. [8] Mastodon's modified format has 48 bits for a millisecond-level timestamp, as it uses the UNIX epoch. The remaining 16 bits are for sequence data. [9]

    String functions are used in computer programming languages to manipulate a string or query information about a string (some do both).. Most programming languages that have a string datatype will have some string functions although there may be other low-level ways within each language to handle strings directly.
