  2. Null-terminated string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null-terminated_string

    The only popular alternative at that time, usually called a "Pascal string" (a more modern term is "length-prefixed"), used a leading byte to store the length of the string. This allows the string to contain NUL and made finding the length need only one memory access (O(1) (constant) time ), but limited string length to 255 characters.

  3. Collection (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collection_(abstract_data...

    Oracle PL/SQL implements collections as programmer-defined types [1] Python: some built-in, others implemented in the collections library.NET provides the ICollection and IReadOnlyCollection interfaces and implementations such as List<T>. Rust provides the Vec<T> [2] and HashMap<K, V> [3] structs in the std::collections namespace. [4]

  4. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

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

    The enclosed text becomes a string literal, which Python usually ignores (except when it is the first statement in the body of a module, class or function; see docstring). Elixir. The above trick used in Python also works in Elixir, but the compiler will throw a warning if it spots this.

  5. Format (Common Lisp) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_(Common_Lisp)

    Format is a function in Common Lisp that can produce formatted text using a format string similar to the print format string.It provides more functionality than print, allowing the user to output numbers in various formats (including, for instance: hex, binary, octal, roman numerals, and English), apply certain format specifiers only under certain conditions, iterate over data structures ...

  6. Data truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_truncation

    In databases and computer networking data truncation occurs when data or a data stream (such as a file) is stored in a location too short to hold its entire length. [1] Data truncation may occur automatically, such as when a long string is written to a smaller buffer, or deliberately, when only a portion of the data is wanted.

  7. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    Generalized suffix tree for the strings "ABAB", "BABA" and "ABBA", numbered 0, 1 and 2. The longest common substrings of a set of strings can be found by building a generalized suffix tree for the strings, and then finding the deepest internal nodes which have leaf nodes from all the strings in the subtree below it.

  8. String interning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interning

    The distinct values are stored in a string intern pool. The single copy of each string is called its intern and is typically looked up by a method of the string class, for example String.intern() [2] in Java. All compile-time constant strings in Java are automatically interned using this method. [3]

  9. Damerau–Levenshtein distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damerau–Levenshtein_distance

    Presented here are two algorithms: the first, [8] simpler one, computes what is known as the optimal string alignment distance or restricted edit distance, [7] while the second one [9] computes the Damerau–Levenshtein distance with adjacent transpositions.
