Comments • Comments in Python are indicated with a pound sign, #. • Any text following a # and the end of the line is ignored by the interpreter. • For multiple-line comments, a # must be used at the beginning of each line. Continuation Line • The \ character at the end of a line of Python code signifies that the next line is a continuation of the current line. Variable Names and Assignments • Valid characters for variable, function, module, and object names are any letter or number. The underscore character can also be used. • Numbers cannot be used as the first character. • The underscore should not be used as either the first or last character, unless you know what you are doing. – There are special rules concerning leading and trailing underscore characters. Variable Names and Assignments • Python is case sensitive! Capitalization matters. – The variable f is not the same as the variable F. • Python supports parallel assignment >>> a, b = 5, 'hi' >>> a 5 >>> b 'hi' Data Types • Examples of data types are integers, floating-point numbers, complex numbers, strings, etc. • Python uses dynamic typing, which means that the variable type is determined by its input. – The same variable name can be used as an integer at one point, and then if a string is assigned to it, it then becomes a string or character variable.

    Software II: Principles of Programming Languages Lecture 6 – Data Types Some Basic Definitions • A data type defines a collection of data objects and a set of predefined operations on those objects • A descriptor is the collection of the attributes of a variable • An object represents an instance of a user- defined (abstract data) type • One design issue for all data types: What operations are defined and how are they specified? Primitive Data Types • Almost all programming languages provide a set of primitive data types • Primitive data types: Those not defined in terms of other data types • Some primitive data types are merely reflections of the hardware • Others require only a little non-hardware support for their implementation The Integer Data Type • Almost always an exact reflection of the hardware so the mapping is trivial • There may be as many as eight different integer types in a language • Java’s signed integer sizes: byte , short , int , long The Floating Point Data Type • Model real numbers, but only as approximations • Languages for scientific use support at least two floating-point types (e.g., float and double ; sometimes more • Usually exactly like the hardware, but not always • IEEE Floating-Point Standard 754 Complex Data Type • Some languages support a complex type, e.g., C99, Fortran, and Python • Each value consists of two floats, the real part and the imaginary part • Literal form real component – (in Fortran: (7, 3) imaginary – (in Python): (7 + 3j) component The Decimal Data Type • For business applications (money)

  • Should C Replace FORTRAN As the Language of Scientific Programming?
    Should C Replace FORTRAN as the Language of Scientific Programming? Linda Wharton CSCI 5535 Fall 1995 Abstract Anti-FORTRAN sentiment has recently become more prevalent. Where does the attitude originate? The most probable source is academia, where C and C++ are the languages of choice. Is there a fact based justification for the attitude? FORTRAN and C are evaluated to determine whether C is a better language than FORTRAN for scientific programming. The features of FORTRAN 77, FORTRAN 90, C and C++ are compared, and evaluated as to how well they meet the requirements of the scientific programming domain. FORTRAN was designed specifically for numerical programming, and thus better meets the requirements. Three algorithms in the scientific domain are coded in both FORTRAN and C. They are evaluated on performance, readability of the code and optimization potential. In all cases the FORTRAN implementations proved superior. Is there evidence to mandate that all upgrades and new development should be done in C, rather than FORTRAN? A good computer programmer can solve any given problem in any language, however it is best to code in the language specifically designed for the problem domain. In the case of scientific programming, that language is FORTRAN. 1 Introduction In the computer arena related to scientific programming, a prevalent attitude seems to be that FORTRAN is obsolete, and C should be used as a replacement language. I am employed as a programmer that supports meteorological research. Most of the programming code I work with is written in FORTRAN. Within the course of my work, I continually encounter prejudice against FORTRAN.

  • Fundamental Programming Concepts
    APPENDIX A Fundamental Programming Concepts The following information is for readers who are new to programming and need a primer on some fundamental programming concepts. If you have programmed in another language, chances are the concepts presented in this appendix are not new to you. You should, however, review the material briefly to become familiar with the C# syntax. Working with Variables and Data Types Variables in programming languages store values that can change while the program executes. For example, if you wanted to count the number of times a user tries to log in to an application, you could use a variable to track the number of attempts. A variable is a memory location where a value is stored. Using the variable, your program can read or alter the value stored in memory. Before you use a variable in your program, however, you must declare it. When you declare a variable, the compiler also needs to know what kind of data will be stored at the memory location. For example, will it be numbers or letters? If the variable will store numbers, how large can a number be? Will the variable store decimals or only whole numbers? You answer these questions by assigning a data type to the variable. A login counter, for example, only needs to hold positive whole numbers. The following code demonstrates how you declare a variable named counter in C# with an integer data type: int counter; Specifying the data type is referred to as strong typing. Strong typing results in more efficient memory management, faster execution, and compiler type checking, all of which reduces runtime errors.

  • 8.5 Java Ronald F
    “handbook” i i 2005/2/4 page 160 i i 160 Chapter 8. General methods for implementing reliable and correct software 8.5 Java Ronald F. Boisvert and Roldan Pozo 51 8.5.1 Introduction The Java52 programming language and environment have become extremely popular since their introduction in the mid 1990s. Indeed, some claim that the number of Java program- mers will soon exceed those who use C/C++. Java was not designed for numerical com- puting, and few scientific applications exist in pure Java as of this writing. Nevertheless, Java has a number of features that make it quite desirable if one’s goal is the development of highly reliable software. Among these are the portability provided by the Java Vir- tual Machine (JVM) and language features that promote safety. In addition, Java provides an object-oriented development framework, a network-aware environment, and access to a rich base of system utilities that make the development of complete applications quite convenient. Such features make it an attractive alternative to Fortran, C, or C++ for the development of scientific applications. Our goal here is to provide some guidance to non-Java programmers as to whether Java might be appropriate for scientific applications. We will discuss some of Java’s fea- tures which promote the safety, reliability, and portability, and then briefly address the biggest concern of most scientific users: performance. We conclude with a short discus- sion of some deficiencies of Java in the context of scientific computing. 8.5.2 Language Features While Java’s first applications were related to the development of embedded systems, the language itself is a general-purpose programming language [Gosling et al., 2000].

    Type-indexed data types Ralf Hinze1;2, Johan Jeuring2;3, and Andres L¨oh2 1 Institut f¨urInformatik III, Universit¨atBonn R¨omerstraße164, 53117 Bonn, Germany [email protected] http://www.informatik.uni-bonn.de/~ralf/ 2 Institute of Information and Computing Sciences, Utrecht University P.O.Box 80.089, 3508 TB Utrecht, The Netherlands fralf,johanj,[email protected] http://www.cs.uu.nl/~fralf,johanj,andresg/ 3 Open University, Heerlen, The Netherlands Abstract. A polytypic function is a function that can be instantiated on many data types to obtain data type specific functionality. Examples of polytypic functions are the functions that can be derived in Haskell, such as show, read, and ‘ ’. More advanced examples are functions for digital searching, pattern matching, unification, rewriting, and structure editing. For each of these problems, we not only have to define poly- typic functionality, but also a type-indexed data type: a data type that is constructed in a generic way from an argument data type. For ex- ample, in the case of digital searching we have to define a search tree type by induction on the structure of the type of search keys. This paper shows how to define type-indexed data types, discusses several examples of type-indexed data types, and shows how to specialize type-indexed data types. The approach has been implemented in Generic Haskell, a generic programming extension of the functional language Haskell. 1 Introduction A polytypic (or generic, type-indexed) function is a function that can be instan- tiated on many data types to obtain data type specific functionality.
