  2. Longest common substring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_substring

    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. The figure on the right is the suffix tree for the strings "ABAB", "BABA" and "ABBA", padded with unique string ...

  3. Magic number (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(programming)

    In computer programming, a magic number is any of the following: A unique value with unexplained meaning or multiple occurrences which could (preferably) be replaced with a named constant A constant numerical or text value used to identify a file format or protocol (for files, see List of file signatures )

  4. String (computer science) - Wikipedia

    A program may also accept string input from its user. Further, strings may store data expressed as characters yet not intended for human reading. Example strings and their purposes: A message like "file upload complete" is a string that software shows to end users. In the program's source code, this message would likely appear as a string literal.

  5. Longest common subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_subsequence

    For an arbitrary number of input sequences, the dynamic programming approach gives a solution in O ( N ∏ i = 1 N n i ) . {\displaystyle O\left(N\prod _{i=1}^{N}n_{i}\right).} There exist methods with lower complexity, [ 3 ] which often depend on the length of the LCS, the size of the alphabet, or both.

  6. List (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

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

    A singly-linked list structure, implementing a list with three integer elements. The term list is also used for several concrete data structures that can be used to implement abstract lists, especially linked lists and arrays. In some contexts, such as in Lisp programming, the term list may refer specifically to a linked list rather than an array.

  7. Comparison of programming languages (string functions)

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

    Most programming languages that have a string datatype will have some string functions although there may be other low-level ways within each language to handle strings directly. In object-oriented languages, string functions are often implemented as properties and methods of string objects.

  8. Longest palindromic substring - Wikipedia

    Manacher, Glenn (1975), "A new linear-time "on-line" algorithm for finding the smallest initial palindrome of a string", Journal of the ACM, 22 (3): 346– 351, doi: 10.1145/321892.321896, S2CID 10615419.

  9. String literal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_literal

    For example, in Python, raw strings are preceded by an r or R – compare 'C:\\Windows' with r'C:\Windows' (though, a Python raw string cannot end in an odd number of backslashes). Python 2 also distinguishes two types of strings: 8-bit ASCII ("bytes") strings (the default), explicitly indicated with a b or B prefix, and Unicode strings ...
