  2. Tunstall coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunstall_coding

    Unlike variable-length codes, which include Huffman and Lempel–Ziv coding, Tunstall coding is a code which maps source symbols to a fixed number of bits. [2]Both Tunstall codes and Lempel–Ziv codes represent variable-length words by fixed-length codes.

  3. Free list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_list

    This diagram represents five contiguous memory regions which each hold a pointer and a data block. The List Head points to the 2nd element, which points to the 5th, which points to the 3rd, thereby forming a linked list of available memory regions. A free list (or freelist) is a data structure used in a scheme for dynamic memory allocation.

  4. Corsage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corsage

    If a wrist corsage is chosen for an event, it can be made using wire and floral tape or floral glue. The wire method is recommended for pin-on corsages because the wire will support the stems or flower bulbs. Glue can be added to hold the flowers together if the wire and tape are not sufficient. [13] [14]

  5. Sentinel node - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_node

    Linked list implementations, especially one of a circular, doubly-linked list, can be simplified remarkably using a sentinel node to demarcate the beginning and end of the list. The list starts out with a single node, the sentinel node which has the next and previous pointers point to itself. This condition determines if the list is empty.

  6. Dia (software) - Wikipedia

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

    Dia has special objects to help draw entity-relationship models, Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, flowcharts, network diagrams, and simple electrical circuits. It is also possible to add support for new shapes by writing simple XML files, using a subset of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to draw the shape.

  7. 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})

  8. String diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_diagram

    String diagrams are made of boxes:, which represent processes, with a list of wires coming in at the top and at the bottom, which represent the input and output systems being processed by the box . Starting from a collection of wires and boxes, called a signature , one may generate the set of all string diagrams by induction:

  9. Warnier/Orr diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warnier/Orr_diagram

    A Warnier/Orr diagram (also known as a logical construction of a program/system) is a kind of hierarchical flowchart that allows the description of the organization of data and procedures. They were initially developed 1976, [ 1 ] in France by Jean-Dominique Warnier [ 2 ] and in the United States by Kenneth Orr [ 3 ] on the foundation of ...
