  2. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    Any existing mapping is overwritten. The arguments to this operation are the key and the value. Remove or delete remove a (,) pair from the collection, unmapping a given key from its value. The argument to this operation is the key. Lookup, find, or get find the value (if any) that is bound to a given key.

  3. Multi-key quicksort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-key_quicksort

    Multi-key quicksort, also known as three-way radix quicksort, [1] is an algorithm for sorting strings.This hybrid of quicksort and radix sort was originally suggested by P. Shackleton, as reported in one of C.A.R. Hoare's seminal papers on quicksort; [2]: 14 its modern incarnation was developed by Jon Bentley and Robert Sedgewick in the mid-1990s. [3]

  4. Search data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_data_structure

    The simplest kind of query is to locate a record that has a specific field (the key) equal to a specified value v.Other common kinds of query are "find the item with smallest (or largest) key value", "find the item with largest key value not exceeding v", "find all items with key values between specified bounds v min and v max".

  5. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    foreach(key, value) in collection { # Do something to value # } ... Most general: string or array as collection (collection size known at run-time) ... Python's tuple ...

  6. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    In the array containing the E(x, y) values, we then choose the minimal value in the last row, let it be E(x 2, y 2), and follow the path of computation backwards, back to the row number 0. If the field we arrived at was E (0, y 1 ), then T [ y 1 + 1] ...

  7. Ternary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_search_tree

    If, however, the key's first character is equal to the node's value then the insertion procedure is called on the equal kid and the key's first character is pruned away. [1] Like binary search trees and other data structures , ternary search trees can become degenerate depending on the order of the keys.

  8. Pigeonhole sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigeonhole_sort

    Going over the original array, put each value into the pigeonhole corresponding to its key, such that each pigeonhole eventually contains a list of all values with that key. Iterate over the pigeonhole array in increasing order of keys, and for each pigeonhole, put its elements into the original array in increasing order.

  9. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})
