  2. Fold (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

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

    Folds can be regarded as consistently replacing the structural components of a data structure with functions and values. Lists, for example, are built up in many functional languages from two primitives: any list is either an empty list, commonly called nil ([]), or is constructed by prefixing an element in front of another list, creating what is called a cons node ( Cons(X1,Cons(X2,Cons ...

  3. Inverted index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_index

    In computer science, an inverted index (also referred to as a postings list, postings file, or inverted file) is a database index storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a table, or in a document or a set of documents (named in contrast to a forward index, which maps from documents to content).

  4. Decompiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompiler

    Decompilation is the process of transforming executable code into a high-level, human-readable format using a decompiler.This process is commonly used for tasks that involve reverse-engineering the logic behind executable code, such as recovering lost or unavailable source code.

    Reverse engineering of the code since 2017. [409] Currently only a small part of the source code is reverse engineered, it is partly emulation. The main functionality is still coming from the original binary where newly created replacement parts are spliced-in in runtime. Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II: 1997 2013 FPS: LucasArts

  6. Java collections framework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_collections_framework

    Maps are data structures that associate a key with an element. This lets the map be very flexible. If the key is the hash code of the element, the Map is essentially a Set. If it's just an increasing number, it becomes a list. Examples of Map implementations include java.util.HashMap, java.util.LinkedHashMap, and java.util.TreeMap.

  7. Iterator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterator

    For example, the iterator method is supposed to return an Iterator object, and the pull-one method is supposed to produce and return the next value if possible, or return the sentinel value IterationEnd if no more values could be produced. The following example shows an equivalent iteration over a collection using explicit iterators:

  8. Linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_list

    One may also use a sentinel node at the end of the list, with an appropriate data field, to eliminate some end-of-list tests. For example, when scanning the list looking for a node with a given value x, setting the sentinel's data field to x makes it unnecessary to test for end-of-list inside the loop. Another example is the merging two sorted ...

  9. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    If n is greater than the length of the string then most implementations return the whole string (exceptions exist – see code examples). Note that for variable-length encodings such as UTF-8 , UTF-16 or Shift-JIS , it can be necessary to remove string positions at the end, in order to avoid invalid strings.
