  2. 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 ...

  3. Integer literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_literal

    In computer science, an integer literal is a kind of literal for an integer whose value is directly represented in source code.For example, in the assignment statement x = 1, the string 1 is an integer literal indicating the value 1, while in the statement x = 0x10 the string 0x10 is an integer literal indicating the value 16, which is represented by 10 in hexadecimal (indicated by the 0x prefix).

  4. Unary coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unary_coding

    Unary coding, [nb 1] or the unary numeral system and also sometimes called thermometer code, is an entropy encoding that represents a natural number, n, with a code of length n + 1 ( or n), usually n ones followed by a zero (if natural number is understood as non-negative integer) or with n − 1 ones followed by a zero (if natural number is understood as strictly positive integer).

  5. Numeral system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_system

    The number the numeral represents is called its value. Not all number systems can represent the same set of numbers; for example, Roman numerals cannot represent the number zero. Ideally, a numeral system will: Represent a useful set of numbers (e.g. all integers, or rational numbers)

  6. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    The standard type hierarchy of Python 3. In computer science and computer programming, a data type (or simply type) is a collection or grouping of data values, usually specified by a set of possible values, a set of allowed operations on these values, and/or a representation of these values as machine types.

  7. Natural number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_number

    The first ordinal number that is not a natural number is expressed as ω; this is also the ordinal number of the set of natural numbers itself. The least ordinal of cardinality ℵ 0 (that is, the initial ordinal of ℵ 0 ) is ω but many well-ordered sets with cardinal number ℵ 0 have an ordinal number greater than ω .

  8. Narcissistic number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_number

    The natural numbers < are trivial narcissistic numbers for all , all other narcissistic numbers are nontrivial narcissistic numbers. For example, the number 153 in base b = 10 {\displaystyle b=10} is a narcissistic number, because k = 3 {\displaystyle k=3} and 153 = 1 3 + 5 3 + 3 3 {\displaystyle 153=1^{3}+5^{3}+3^{3}} .

  9. Context-free grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context-free_grammar

    A derivation of a string for a grammar is a sequence of grammar rule applications that transform the start symbol into the string. A derivation proves that the string belongs to the grammar's language. A derivation is fully determined by giving, for each step: the rule applied in that step; the occurrence of its left-hand side to which it is ...
