  2. Comparison of programming languages (list comprehension)

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

    List comprehension is a syntactic construct available in some programming languages for creating a list based on existing lists. It follows the form of the mathematical set-builder notation (set comprehension) as distinct from the use of map and filter functions.

  3. Comparison of parser generators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Comparison_of_parser_generators

    A classic example of a problem which a regular grammar cannot handle is the question of whether a given string contains correctly nested parentheses. (This is typically handled by a Chomsky Type 2 grammar, also termed a context-free grammar .)

  4. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(computer...

    In computer science, a generator is a routine that can be used to control the iteration behaviour of a loop. All generators are also iterators. [1] A generator is very similar to a function that returns an array, in that a generator has parameters, can be called, and generates a sequence of values.

  5. Set-builder notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-builder_notation

    Set-builder notation can be used to describe a set that is defined by a predicate, that is, a logical formula that evaluates to true for an element of the set, and false otherwise. [2]

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.

  8. Java (programming language) - Wikipedia

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

    Java gained popularity shortly after its release, and has been a popular programming language since then. [18] Java was the third most popular programming language in 2022 according to GitHub. [19] Although still widely popular, there has been a gradual decline in use of Java in recent years with other languages using JVM gaining popularity. [20]

  9. Third-generation programming language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-generation...

    A third-generation programming language (3GL) is a high-level computer programming language that tends to be more machine-independent and programmer-friendly than the machine code of the first-generation and assembly languages of the second-generation, while having a less specific focus to the fourth and fifth generations.
