  2. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    For function that manipulate strings, modern object-oriented languages, like C# and Java have immutable strings and return a copy (in newly allocated dynamic memory), while others, like C manipulate the original string unless the programmer copies data to a new string.

  3. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

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

    Pandas (styled as pandas) is a software library written for the Python programming language for data manipulation and analysis. In particular, it offers data structures and operations for manipulating numerical tables and time series .

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Since 7 October 2024, Python 3.13 is the latest stable release, and it and, for few more months, 3.12 are the only releases with active support including for bug fixes (as opposed to just for security) and Python 3.9, [55] is the oldest supported version of Python (albeit in the 'security support' phase), due to Python 3.8 reaching end-of-life.

  5. Assignment (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    var list := {0, 1} a, b := list The list will be unpacked so that 0 is assigned to a and 1 to b. Furthermore, a, b := b, a swaps the values of a and b. In languages without parallel assignment, this would have to be written to use a temporary variable var t := a a := b b := t since a := b; b := a leaves both a and b with the original value of b.

  6. Off-by-one error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-by-one_error

    Off-by-one errors are common in using the C library because it is not consistent with respect to whether one needs to subtract 1 byte – functions like fgets() and strncpy will never write past the length given them (fgets() subtracts 1 itself, and only retrieves (length − 1) bytes), whereas others, like strncat will write past the length given them.

  7. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    For example, let n be significantly less than 2 b. Consider a pseudorandom number generator function P(key) that is uniform on the interval [0, 2 b − 1]. A hash function uniform on the interval [0, n − 1] is n P(key) / 2 b. We can replace the division by a (possibly faster) right bit shift: n P(key) >> b.

  8. Word2vec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word2vec

    For example, word2vec has been used to map a vector space of words in one language to a vector space constructed from another language. Relationships between translated words in both spaces can be used to assist with machine translation of new words.

  9. Pointer (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointer_(computer_programming)

    A basic example is in the argv argument to the main function in C (and C++), which is given in the prototype as char **argv—this is because the variable argv itself is a pointer to an array of strings (an array of arrays), so *argv is a pointer to the 0th string (by convention the name of the program), and **argv is the 0th character of the ...
