  2. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    This number is called the edit distance between the string and the pattern. The usual primitive operations are: [1] insertion: cot → coat; deletion: coat → cot; substitution: coat → cost; These three operations may be generalized as forms of substitution by adding a NULL character (here symbolized by *) wherever a character has been ...

  3. C++ string handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++_string_handling

    In modern standard C++, a string literal such as "hello" still denotes a NUL-terminated array of characters. [1] Using C++ classes to implement a string type offers several benefits of automated memory management and a reduced risk of out-of-bounds accesses, [2] and more intuitive syntax for string comparison and concatenation. Therefore, it ...

  4. Indentation style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_style

    In computer programming, indentation style is a convention, a.k.a. style, governing the indentation of blocks of source code.An indentation style generally involves consistent width of whitespace (indentation size) before each line of a block, so that the lines of code appear to be related, and dictates whether to use space or tab characters for the indentation whitespace.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vim_(text_editor)

    Vim (/ v ɪ m / ⓘ; [5] vi improved) is a free and open-source, screen-based text editor program. It is an improved clone of Bill Joy's vi.Vim's author, Bram Moolenaar, derived Vim from a port of the Stevie editor for Amiga [6] and released a version to the public in 1991.

  6. Escape sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_sequence

    In C and many derivative programming languages, a string escape sequence is a series of two or more characters, starting with a backslash \. [3]Note that in C a backslash immediately followed by a newline does not constitute an escape sequence, but splices physical source lines into logical ones in the second translation phase, whereas string escape sequences are converted in the fifth ...

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

    find_character(string,char) returns integer Description Returns the position of the start of the first occurrence of the character char in string. If the character is not found most of these routines return an invalid index value – -1 where indexes are 0-based, 0 where they are 1-based – or some value to be interpreted as Boolean FALSE.

  8. Natural sort order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_sort_order

    In computing, natural sort order (or natural sorting) is the ordering of strings in alphabetical order, except that multi-digit numbers are treated atomically, i.e., as if they were a single character. Natural sort order has been promoted as being more human-friendly ("natural") than machine-oriented, pure alphabetical sort order.

    HackerRank's programming challenges can be solved in a variety of programming languages (including Java, C++, PHP, Python, SQL, and JavaScript) and span multiple computer science domains. [ 2 ] HackerRank categorizes most of their programming challenges into a number of core computer science domains, [ 3 ] including database management ...
