  2. Null-terminated string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null-terminated_string

    In computer programming, a null-terminated string is a character string stored as an array containing the characters and terminated with a null character (a character with an internal value of zero, called "NUL" in this article, not same as the glyph zero).

  3. Empty string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empty_string

    Even a string of length zero can require memory to store it, depending on the format being used. In most programming languages, the empty string is distinct from a null reference (or null pointer) because a null reference points to no string at all, not even the empty string. The empty string is a legitimate string, upon which most string ...

  4. Whitespace character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_character

    Typical values range from 1/5 em to 1/3 em (in digital typography an em is equal to the nominal size of the font, so for a 10-point font the space will probably be between 2 and 3.3 points). Sophisticated fonts may have differently sized spaces for bold, italic, and small-caps faces, and often compositors will manually adjust the width of the ...

  5. SciPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SciPy

    SciPy (pronounced / ˈ s aɪ p aɪ / "sigh pie" [2]) is a free and open-source Python library used for scientific computing and technical computing. [3]SciPy contains modules for optimization, linear algebra, integration, interpolation, special functions, FFT, signal and image processing, ODE solvers and other tasks common in science and engineering.

  6. Non-breaking space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-breaking_space

    A second common application of non-breaking spaces is in plain text file formats such as SGML, HTML, TeX and LaTeX, whose rendering engines are programmed to treat sequences of whitespace characters (space, newline, tab, form feed, etc.) as if they were a single character (but this behavior can be overridden).

  7. String metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_metric

    In mathematics and computer science, a string metric (also known as a string similarity metric or string distance function) is a metric that measures distance ("inverse similarity") between two text strings for approximate string matching or comparison and in fuzzy string searching.

  8. C++ Standard Library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++_Standard_Library

    The C++ Standard Library provides several generic containers, functions to use and manipulate these containers, function objects, generic strings and streams (including interactive and file I/O), support for some language features, and functions for common tasks such as finding the square root of a number.

  9. Tuple space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuple_space

    Objects, when deposited in an Object Space are passive, i.e., their methods cannot be invoked while the objects are in the Object Space. Instead, the accessing process must retrieve it from the Object Space into its local memory, use the service provided by the object, update the state of the object and place it back into the Object Space.
