Piece of code from a module of the Linux kernel, which uses snake case for identifiers. Snake case (sometimes stylized autologically as snake_case) is the naming convention in which each space is replaced with an underscore (_) character, and words are written in lowercase. It is a commonly used naming convention in computing, for example for ...
ZBar is an open-source C barcode reading library with C++, Python, [2] Perl, and Ruby bindings. [3] [4] [5] It is also implemented on Linux and Microsoft Windows as a command-line application, [6] and as an iPhone application. [7] It was originally developed at SourceForge. [8]
Facade pattern. The facade pattern (also spelled façade) is a software design pattern commonly used in object-oriented programming. Analogous to a façade in architecture, it is an object that serves as a front-facing interface masking more complex underlying or structural code. A facade can: improve the readability and usability of a software ...
In computers, case sensitivity defines whether uppercase and lowercase letters are treated as distinct ( case-sensitive) or equivalent ( case-insensitive ). For instance, when users interested in learning about dogs search an e-book, "dog" and "Dog" are of the same significance to them. Thus, they request a case-insensitive search.
A wide variety of dynamic or scripting languages can be embedded in compiled executable code. Basically, object code for the language's interpreter needs to be linked into the executable. Source code fragments for the embedded language can then be passed to an evaluation function as strings.
In computer programming, a naming convention is a set of rules for choosing the character sequence to be used for identifiers which denote variables, types, functions, and other entities in source code and documentation . Reasons for using a naming convention (as opposed to allowing programmers to choose any character sequence) include the ...
Apache Avro. Avro is a row-oriented remote procedure call and data serialization framework developed within Apache's Hadoop project. It uses JSON for defining data types and protocols, and serializes data in a compact binary format. Its primary use is in Apache Hadoop, where it can provide both a serialization format for persistent data, and a ...
This is a feature of C# 9.0. Similar to in scripting languages, top-level statements removes the ceremony of having to declare the Program class with a Main method. Instead, statements can be written directly in one specific file, and that file will be the entry point of the program. Code in other files will still have to be defined in classes.
