  2. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    Because System.String does not conform to STRING_8, then the assignment above is valid only if System.String converts to STRING_8. The Eiffel class STRING_8 has a conversion procedure make_from_cil for objects of type System.String. Conversion procedures are also always designated as creation procedures (similar to constructors).

  3. UTF-16 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-16

    The Joliet file system, used in CD-ROM media, encodes file names using UCS-2BE (up to sixty-four Unicode characters per file name). Python version 2.0 officially only used UCS-2 internally, but the UTF-8 decoder to "Unicode" produced correct UTF-16. There was also the ability to compile Python so that it used UTF-32 internally, this was ...

  4. Transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_function

    In engineering, a transfer function (also known as system function [1] or network function) of a system, sub-system, or component is a mathematical function that models the system's output for each possible input. [2] [3] [4] It is widely used in electronic engineering tools like circuit simulators and control systems.

  5. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  6. GObject - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GObject

    The private structure can be declared in the public header file, but defined only in the implementation file, with the effect that the private data is opaque to users, but transparent to the implementor. If the private structure is registered with GType, it will be automatically allocated by the object system.

  7. Type signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_signature

    A function signature consists of the function prototype. It specifies the general information about a function like the name, scope and parameters. Many programming languages use name mangling in order to pass along more semantic information from the compilers to the linkers. In addition to mangling, there is an excess of information in a ...

  8. First-class function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-class_function

    To apply such a function object, one must use the funcall function: (funcall #'foo bar baz). Python Explicit partial application with functools.partial since version 2.5, and operator.methodcaller since version 2.6. Ruby The identifier of a regular "function" in Ruby (which is really a method) cannot be used as a value or passed.

    The following code fragment depicts the process flow of a system administration script (Windows script file). Although a section marking the code appears as a comment, the diagram is in an XML CDATA section, which is technically not a comment, but serves the same purpose here. [ 19 ]
