  2. Directory (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directory_(computing)

    In a hierarchical file system (that is, one in which files and directories are organized in a manner that resembles a tree), a directory contained inside another directory is called a subdirectory. The terms parent and child are often used to describe the relationship between a subdirectory and the directory in which it is cataloged, the latter ...

    GDScript, a scripting language very similar to Python, built-in to the Godot game engine. [238] Go is designed for the "speed of working in a dynamic language like Python" [239] and shares the same syntax for slicing arrays. Groovy was motivated by the desire to bring the Python design philosophy to Java. [240]

  4. Semantic file system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_file_system

    Traditional hierarchical file-systems tend to impose a burden, for example when a sub-directory layout is contradicting a user's perception of where files would be stored. Having a tag-based interface alleviates this hierarchy problem and enables users to query for data in an intuitive fashion.

  5. Working directory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_directory

    In computing, the working directory of a process is a directory of a hierarchical file system, if any, [nb 1] dynamically associated with the process. It is sometimes called the current working directory (CWD) , e.g. the BSD getcwd [ 1 ] function, or just current directory . [ 2 ]

  6. Hierarchical file system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_file_system

    The hierarchical file system was used instead of simply expanding the flat directory for performance reasons. "A flat DOS file structure with a single directory and 10 times as many files would logically require 10 times as long to search." [2] OS/2 and Windows also support a hierarchical file system, using the same path syntax as DOS.

  7. Path (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(computing)

    A path (or filepath, file path, pathname, or similar) is a string of characters used to uniquely identify a location in a directory structure.It is composed by following the directory tree hierarchy in which components, separated by a delimiting character, represent each directory.

  8. Tree (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(abstract_data_type)

    In computer science, a tree is a widely used abstract data type that represents a hierarchical tree structure with a set of connected nodes. Each node in the tree can be connected to many children (depending on the type of tree), but must be connected to exactly one parent, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] except for the root node, which has no parent (i.e., the ...

    Blockly is an open-source web-based graphical language where users can drag blocks together to build an application with no typing required. It was developed by Google. It allows users to convert their Blockly code into other programming languages such as PHP, Python, etc. CiMPLE was a visual language for programming robotic kit designed for ...
