  2. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    Returns the position of the start of the first occurrence of the character char in string. If the character is not found most of these routines return an invalid index value – -1 where indexes are 0-based, 0 where they are 1-based – or some value to be interpreted as Boolean FALSE.

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  4. FM-index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM-index

    In computer science, an FM-index is a compressed full-text substring index based on the Burrows–Wheeler transform, with some similarities to the suffix array.It was created by Paolo Ferragina and Giovanni Manzini, [1] who describe it as an opportunistic data structure as it allows compression of the input text while still permitting fast substring queries.

  5. Symbol table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbol_table

    For example, symbol table entries representing initialized data are denoted by the character "d" and symbol table entries for functions have the symbol type "t" (because executable code is located in the text section of an object file). Additionally, the capitalization of the symbol type indicates the type of linkage: lower-case letters ...

    INPUT (n)-- return the character at position n RULE (R: Rule, P: Position) entry = GET_MEMO (R, P)-- return the number of elements previously matched in rule R at position P if entry == nil then return EVAL (R, P); end return entry; EVAL (R: Rule, P: Position) start = P; for choice in R. choices-- Return a list of choice acc = 0; for symbol in ...

  7. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. [33] Python is dynamically type-checked and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms, including structured (particularly procedural), object-oriented and functional ...

  8. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

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

    The base index of an array can be freely chosen. Usually programming languages allowing n-based indexing also allow negative index values and other scalar data types like enumerations, or characters may be used as an array index. Using zero based indexing is the design choice of many influential programming languages, including C, Java and Lisp ...

  9. Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Moore_string-search...

    If the characters do not match, there is no need to continue searching backwards along the text. If the character in the text does not match any of the characters in the pattern, then the next character in the text to check is located m characters farther along the text, where m is the length of the pattern.
