  2. Fold (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fold_(higher-order_function)

    Fold (higher-order function) In functional programming, fold (also termed reduce, accumulate, aggregate, compress, or inject) refers to a family of higher-order functions that analyze a recursive data structure and through use of a given combining operation, recombine the results of recursively processing its constituent parts, building up a ...

  3. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(computer_science)

    The reverse of a string is a string with the same symbols but in reverse order. For example, if s = abc (where a, b, and c are symbols of the alphabet), then the reverse of s is cba. A string that is the reverse of itself (e.g., s = madam) is called a palindrome, which also includes the empty string and all strings of length 1.

  4. Circular shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_shift

    Circular shift. In combinatorial mathematics, a circular shift is the operation of rearranging the entries in a tuple, either by moving the final entry to the first position, while shifting all other entries to the next position, or by performing the inverse operation. A circular shift is a special kind of cyclic permutation, which in turn is a ...

    Python syntax and semantics. A snippet of Python code with keywords highlighted in bold yellow font. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterministic_finite_automaton

    A deterministic finite automaton M is a 5- tuple, (Q, Σ, δ, q0, F), consisting of. a finite set of states Q. a finite set of input symbols called the alphabet Σ. a transition function δ : Q × Σ → Q. an initial or start state. q 0 ∈ Q {\displaystyle q_ {0}\in Q} a set of accept states. F ⊆ Q {\displaystyle F\subseteq Q}

  7. Pushdown automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pushdown_automaton

    Pushdown automaton. In the theory of computation, a branch of theoretical computer science, a pushdown automaton (PDA) is a type of automaton that employs a stack. Pushdown automata are used in theories about what can be computed by machines. They are more capable than finite-state machines but less capable than Turing machines (see below).

  8. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    e. 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.

  9. List comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.
