  2. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    Existing Eiffel software uses the string classes (such as STRING_8) from the Eiffel libraries, but Eiffel software written for .NET must use the .NET string class (System.String) in many cases, for example when calling .NET methods which expect items of the .NET type to be passed as arguments. So, the conversion of these types back and forth ...

    Python: the built-in int (3.x) / long (2.x) integer type is of arbitrary precision. The Decimal class in the standard library module decimal has user definable precision and limited mathematical operations (exponentiation, square root, etc. but no trigonometric functions).

    For example, one could define a dictionary having a string "toast" mapped to the integer 42 or vice versa. The keys in a dictionary must be of an immutable Python type, such as an integer or a string, because under the hood they are implemented via a hash function. This makes for much faster lookup times, but requires keys not change.

  6. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    There are two types of divisions in Python: floor division (or integer division) // and floating-point/division. [103] Python uses the ** operator for exponentiation. Python uses the + operator for string concatenation. Python uses the * operator for duplicating a string a specified number of times.

    For example, the number 457 is actually 4×10 2 + 5×10 1 + 7×10 0, where base 10 is presumed but not shown explicitly. Initially, we will convert DABDDB into a base-6 numeral, because 6 is the length of the string. The string is first mapped into the digit string 301331, which then maps to an integer by the polynomial:

  8. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(computer_science)

    A string (or word [23] or expression [24]) over Σ is any finite sequence of symbols from Σ. [25] For example, if Σ = {0, 1}, then 01011 is a string over Σ. The length of a string s is the number of symbols in s (the length of the sequence) and can be any non-negative integer; it is often denoted as |s|.
