  2. Map (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

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

    Map is also a frequently used operation in high level languages such as ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML), Perl, Python, and Ruby; the operation is called map in all four of these languages. A collect alias for map is also provided in Ruby (from Smalltalk ).

  3. Linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_list

    record List { Node firstNode // points to first node of list; null for empty list} Traversal of a singly linked list is simple, beginning at the first node and following each next link until reaching the end: node := list.firstNode while node not null (do something with node.data) node := node.next

  4. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    Order of operations. In mathematics and computer programming, the order of operations is a collection of rules that reflect conventions about which operations to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. These rules are formalized with a ranking of the operations.

  5. 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.

  6. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    Python's heapq module implements a binary min-heap on top of a list. Java 's library contains a PriorityQueue class, which implements a min-priority-queue as a binary heap. .NET 's library contains a PriorityQueue class, which implements an array-backed, quaternary min-heap.

  7. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python supports a wide variety of string operations. Strings in Python are immutable, so a string operation such as a substitution of characters, that in other programming languages might alter the string in place, returns a new string in Python. Performance considerations sometimes push for using special techniques in programs that modify ...

  8. Skip list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_list

    () operations, which force us to visit every node in ascending order (such as printing the entire list), provide the opportunity to perform a behind-the-scenes derandomization of the level structure of the skip-list in an optimal way, bringing the skip list to (⁡) search time. (Choose the level of the i'th finite node to be 1 plus the number ...

  9. Assignment (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    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 assignment, this would have to be written to use a temporary variable var t := a a := b b := t since a := b; b := a leaves both a and b with the original value of b.
