Iterator. In computer programming, an iterator is an object that progressively provides access to each item of a collection, in order. [1] [2] [3] A collection may provide multiple iterators via its interface that provide items in different orders, such as forwards and backwards. An iterator is often implemented in terms of the structure ...
Python syntax and semantics. A snippet of Python code with keywords highlighted in bold yellow font. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java ...
In computer science, an associative array, map, symbol table, or dictionary is an abstract data type that stores a collection of (key, value) pairs, such that each possible key appears at most once in the collection. In mathematical terms, an associative array is a function with finite domain. [1] It supports 'lookup', 'remove', and 'insert ...
The user can search for elements in an associative array, and delete elements from the array. The following shows how multi-dimensional associative arrays can be simulated in standard AWK using concatenation and the built-in string-separator variable SUBSEP:
Python's isoperator may be used to compare object identities (comparison by reference), and comparisons may be chained—for example, a<=b<=c. Python uses and, or, and notas Boolean operators. Python has a type of expression named a list comprehension, and a more general expression named a generatorexpression.
The Viterbi algorithm is a dynamic programming algorithm for obtaining the maximum a posteriori probability estimate of the most likely sequence of hidden states—called the Viterbi path —that results in a sequence of observed events. This is done especially in the context of Markov information sources and hidden Markov models (HMM).
The Zen of Python is a collection of 19 "guiding principles" for writing computer programs that influence the design of the Python programming language. Python code that aligns with these principles is often referred to as "Pythonic". Software engineer Tim Peters wrote this set of principles and posted it on the Python mailing list in 1999.
Infinite loop. Control flow. v. t. e. In computer programming, an infinite loop(or endless loop)[1][2]is a sequence of instructions that, as written, will continue endlessly, unless an external intervention occurs, such as turning off power via a switch or pulling a plug. It may be intentional.
