    The #ifexist function selects one of two alternatives depending on whether a page exists at the specified title. {{#ifexist: page title | value if page exists | value if page doesn't exist }} The page can be in any namespace , so it can be an article or "content page", an image or other media file, a category, etc.

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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. However, there are some ...

  4. Page Up and Page Down keys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_Up_and_Page_Down_keys

    In some applications, the Page Up and Page Down keys behave differently in caret navigation (toggled with the F7 function key in Windows). For a claimed 30% of people [ according to whom? ] , the paging keys move the text in the opposite direction to what they find natural, [ 1 ] and software may contain settings to reverse the operation of ...

  5. Existence detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existence_detection

    For that reason, most programming language libraries contain a means of checking whether a file exists. An existence check can sometimes involve a " brute force " approach of checking all records for a given identifier, as in this Microsoft Excel Visual Basic for Applications code for detecting whether a worksheet exists:

  6. Probability-generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Probability-generating_function

    Probability generating functions are particularly useful for dealing with functions of independent random variables. For example: For example: If X i , i = 1 , 2 , ⋯ , N {\displaystyle X_{i},i=1,2,\cdots ,N} is a sequence of independent (and not necessarily identically distributed) random variables that take on natural-number values, and

  7. reStructuredText - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReStructuredText

    reStructuredText (RST, ReST, or reST) is a file format for textual data used primarily in the Python programming language community for technical documentation.. It is part of the Docutils project of the Python Doc-SIG (Documentation Special Interest Group), aimed at creating a set of tools for Python similar to Javadoc for Java or Plain Old Documentation (POD) for Perl.

  8. Evaluation strategy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaluation_strategy

    In a programming language, an evaluation strategy is a set of rules for evaluating expressions. [1] The term is often used to refer to the more specific notion of a parameter-passing strategy [2] that defines the kind of value that is passed to the function for each parameter (the binding strategy) [3] and whether to evaluate the parameters of a function call, and if so in what order (the ...

  9. Rice's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice's_theorem

    The syntax is the detail of how the program is written, or its "intention", and the semantics is how the program behaves when run, or its "extension". Rice's theorem asserts that it is impossible to decide a property of programs which depends only on the semantics and not on the syntax, unless the property is trivial (true of all programs, or ...
