	string - Search Results - MSN Encarta
		String, in computer science, a data structure composed of a sequence of characters, usually representing human-readable text.
		In computer programming and formal language theory, (and other branches of mathematics), a string is an ordered sequence of symbols.
		A string is the vibrating element that is the source of vibration in string instruments, such as the guitar, harp, piano, and members of the violin family

	String (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Another issue is that if strings are joined together (especially after having their ends truncated by code not aware of the encoding), the first string may not leave the encoder in a state suitable for dealing with the second string.
		The length of a string can be stored implicitly by using a special terminating character; often this is the null character having value zero, a convention used and perpetuated by the popular C programming language.
		String functions are used to manipulate a string or change or edit the contents of a string.

		In computer science, the term string may refer to the data type used to represent strings, the data structures used to store them, or the actual data itself (e.g.
		Older string implementations were designed to work with the character repertoire and encoding defined by ASCII, or more recent extensions like the ISO 8859 series.
		The length of a string can be stored implicitly by using a special terminating character (often NUL, ASCII code 0)—the C programming language uses this convention (see C string)—or explicitly, for example by prefixing the string with integer value (convention used in Pascal).

	SparkNotes: Examples of Recursion: Recursion with the String Library
		The manipulation of strings is a perfect testing ground for recursive and iterative techniques, due to their repetitive nature (a sequence of successive characters in memory, terminated by a '\0').
		String copy with length restriction: strncpy() This function is to strcpy() as strncmp() is to strcmp(): it will copy from the source string to the destination string no more than the specified number of characters.
		String search: strstr() This function searches for one string embedded within another string and returns a pointer in the larger string to the location of the smaller string, returning NULL if the search string was not found.

		The final issue is that if strings are joined together (especially after having their ends truncated by code not aware of the encoding) the first string may not leave the encoder in a state suitable for dealing with the second string.
		The length of a string can also be stored explicitly, for example by prefixing the string with integer value (convention used in Pascal, consequently some people call it a P-string).
		On the other hand it does not involve the heap manager and therefore cannot cause a memory leak problem and since string lengths are fixed at compile time it is easy for the compiler to generate code that enforces them.

		Computer science is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation, and their implementation and application in computer systems.
		In practice, computer science includes a variety of topics relating to computers, which range from the abstract analysis of algorithms, formal grammars, etc. to more concrete subjects like programming languages, software, and computer hardware.
		As a scientific discipline, it is distinct from mathematics, programming, software engineering, informatics, and computer engineering, although there are significant overlaps and no clear demarcation.

	When Is A String Like A String?
		Strings and languages are central to computer science and related problems occur in file comparison for example.
		The odds-ratio of the strings' being related against their not being related is equal to the binary exponential of the null-theory length minus the r-theory length.
		The data for figure 1 were generated by mutating strings with homology one (identical) or zero by various amounts using a mutation model in which changes, inserts and deletes occur in the ratio 2:1:1.

		Generally, a string can be placed directly in the code usually by surrounding it with some form of quote marks (usually ' or ", as these are typeable on most keyboards worldwide).
		Representations of strings depend heavily on the choice of character repetoire and the method of character encoding.
		There are several serious memory management issues with strings, depending on the language theese may be either handled invisiblly by the language or left up to the programmer.

	What is a string? -- definition by The Linux Information Project (LINFO)
		In computer science a string is any finite sequence of characters (i.e., letters, numerals, symbols and punctuation marks).
		How strings and string data types are represented depends largely on the character set (e.g., an alphabet) for which they are defined and the method of character encoding (i.e., how they are represented by bits on a computer).
		Among these utilities are cat, which is used for concatenating, sort, used for sorting, expand, used to convert tabs to spaces, grep, used for searching, split, used for cutting into pieces, tr used to translate or delete characters, unexpand, used to convert spaces to tabs, and wc, used for counting characters or words.

		It is believed that these computations are carried out by network of neurons in cortical microcircuits, where each microcircuit is composed of rather stereotypical circuit of neurons within a cortical column.
		However it is demonstrated through computer simulations that feedback also provides a significant gain in computational power for quite detailed models of cortical microcircuits with in-vivo-like high levels of noise.
		In contrast to previous attractor-based computational models for neural networks, these flexible internal states are {\em high-dimensional} attractors of the circuit dynamics, that still allow the circuit state to absorb new information from online input streams.

		If there is a character that differs at the same valid index for both strings, then the character at the smallest such index determines the value returned.
		If all valid characters are equal in both strings, then the length of the strings determines the value returned.
		0 if the strings are equal, a negative value if this string is less than the argument string, a positive value if this string is greater than the argument string.

		Next, we argue that the lack of system integration exhibited by user-level threads is a consequence of the lack of kernel support for user-level threads provided by contemporary multiprocessor operating systems; we thus argue that kernel threads or processes, as currently conceived, ar the wrong abstraction on which to support user-level management of parallelism.
		NAMOS is intended to be used in an environment where unreliable components, such as communication lines and processors, and autonomous control of resources occasionally cause certain objects to become inaccessible, perhaps in the middle of an atomic transaction.

	Dynamic programming and sequence alignment
		For purposes of answering some important research questions, genetic strings are equivalent to computer science strings — that is, they can be thought of as simply sequences of characters, ignoring their physical and chemical properties.
		This, and the fact that two zero-length strings is a local alignment with score of 0, means that in building up a local alignment you don't need to "go into the red" and have partial scores that are negative.
		Dynamic programming is maybe the most important use of computer science in biology, but certainly not the only one.

		But this an allowed and frequently used feature in C. What happens is that every time the conditional is checked a new line from the file is read into the string s, if the length of this string is greater than zero then condition is true, if it is zero the condition is false.
