  2. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointer_(computer_programming)

    A basic example is in the argv argument to the main function in C (and C++), which is given in the prototype as char **argv—this is because the variable argv itself is a pointer to an array of strings (an array of arrays), so *argv is a pointer to the 0th string (by convention the name of the program), and **argv is the 0th character of the ...

  3. Assignment (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    If the right-hand side of the assignment is a single variable (e.g. an array or structure), the feature is called unpacking [17] or destructuring assignment: [18] var list := {0, 1} a, b := list The list will be unpacked so that 0 is assigned to a and 1 to b. Furthermore, a, b := b, a swaps the values of a and b. In languages without parallel ...

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Python has array index and array slicing expressions in lists, denoted as a[key], a [start: stop] or a [start: stop: step]. Indexes are zero-based , and negative indexes are relative to the end. Slices take elements from the start index up to, but not including, the stop index.

  5. Off-by-one error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-by-one_error

    Off-by-one errors are common in using the C library because it is not consistent with respect to whether one needs to subtract 1 byte – functions like fgets() and strncpy will never write past the length given them (fgets() subtracts 1 itself, and only retrieves (length − 1) bytes), whereas others, like strncat will write past the length given them.

  6. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    In these applications, the set of all inputs is some sort of metric space, and the hashing function can be interpreted as a partition of that space into a grid of cells. The table is often an array with two or more indices (called a grid file, grid index, bucket grid, and similar names), and the hash function returns an index tuple.

  7. Word2vec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word2vec

    They developed a set of 8,869 semantic relations and 10,675 syntactic relations which they use as a benchmark to test the accuracy of a model. When assessing the quality of a vector model, a user may draw on this accuracy test which is implemented in word2vec, [ 28 ] or develop their own test set which is meaningful to the corpora which make up ...

  8. Dining philosophers problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dining_philosophers_problem

    Illustration of the dining philosophers problem. Each philosopher has a bowl of spaghetti and can reach two of the forks. In computer science, the dining philosophers problem is an example problem often used in concurrent algorithm design to illustrate synchronization issues and techniques for resolving them.

    A newline inserted between the words "Hello" and "world" A newline (frequently called line ending, end of line (EOL), next line (NEL) or line break) is a control character or sequence of control characters in character encoding specifications such as ASCII, EBCDIC, Unicode, etc.
