  2. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    By default, a Pandas index is a series of integers ascending from 0, similar to the indices of Python arrays. However, indices can use any NumPy data type, including floating point, timestamps, or strings. [4]: 112 Pandas' syntax for mapping index values to relevant data is the same syntax Python uses to map dictionary keys to values.

  3. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    The set ret can be saved efficiently by just storing the index i, which is the last character of the longest common substring (of size z) instead of S[(i-z+1)..i]. Thus all the longest common substrings would be, for each i in ret, S[(ret[i]-z)..(ret[i])]. The following tricks can be used to reduce the memory usage of an implementation:

  4. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    Note how the use of A[i][j] with multi-step indexing as in C, as opposed to a neutral notation like A(i,j) as in Fortran, almost inevitably implies row-major order for syntactic reasons, so to speak, because it can be rewritten as (A[i])[j], and the A[i] row part can even be assigned to an intermediate variable that is then indexed in a separate expression.

  5. Dictionary coder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dictionary_coder

    A dictionary coder, also sometimes known as a substitution coder, is a class of lossless data compression algorithms which operate by searching for matches between the text to be compressed and a set of strings contained in a data structure (called the 'dictionary') maintained by the encoder. When the encoder finds such a match, it substitutes ...

  6. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    In computer science, an associative array, map, symbol table, or dictionary is an abstract data type that stores a collection of (key, value) pairs, such that each possible key appears at most once in the collection. In mathematical terms, an associative array is a function with finite domain. [1] It supports 'lookup', 'remove', and 'insert ...

  7. Zero-based numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-based_numbering

    To illustrate, suppose a is the memory address of the first element of an array, and i is the index of the desired element. To compute the address of the desired element, if the index numbers count from 1, the desired address is computed by this expression: + (), where s is the size of each element. In contrast, if the index numbers count from ...

  8. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    Simplistic hash functions may add the first and last n characters of a string along with the length, or form a word-size hash from the middle 4 characters of a string. This saves iterating over the (potentially long) string, but hash functions that do not hash on all characters of a string can readily become linear due to redundancies ...

  9. Trie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

    Searching for a value in a trie is guided by the characters in the search string key, as each node in the trie contains a corresponding link to each possible character in the given string. Thus, following the string within the trie yields the associated value for the given string key.
