  2. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python's is operator 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 not as Boolean operators. Python has a type of expression named a list comprehension, and a more general expression named a generator expression. Anonymous functions are ...

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    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).

  4. Operator-precedence parser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator-precedence_parser

    An operator-precedence parser is a simple shift-reduce parser that is capable of parsing a subset of LR (1) grammars. More precisely, the operator-precedence parser can parse all LR (1) grammars where two consecutive nonterminals and epsilon never appear in the right-hand side of any rule. Operator-precedence parsers are not used often in ...

  5. Operator overloading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_overloading

    Operator overloading is syntactic sugar, and is used because it allows programming using notation nearer to the target domain [1] and allows user-defined types a similar level of syntactic support as types built into a language. It is common, for example, in scientific computing, where it allows computing representations of mathematical objects ...

  6. Relational operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_operator

    Relational operator. In computer science, a relational operator is a programming language construct or operator that tests or defines some kind of relation between two entities. These include numerical equality ( e.g., 5 = 5) and inequalities ( e.g., 4 ≥ 3 ).

  7. Canny edge detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canny_edge_detector

    e. The Canny edge detector is an edge detection operator that uses a multi-stage algorithm to detect a wide range of edges in images. It was developed by John F. Canny in 1986. Canny also produced a computational theory of edge detection explaining why the technique works.

  8. Evolutionary algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_algorithm

    e. In computational intelligence (CI), an evolutionary algorithm ( EA) is a subset of evolutionary computation, [1] a generic population-based metaheuristic optimization algorithm. An EA uses mechanisms inspired by biological evolution, such as reproduction, mutation, recombination, and selection. Candidate solutions to the optimization problem ...

  9. Conditional (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_(computer...

    In computer science, conditionals (that is, conditional statements, conditional expressions and conditional constructs) are programming language commands for handling decisions. Specifically, conditionals perform different computations or actions depending on whether a programmer-defined Boolean condition evaluates to true or false. In terms of ...
