Type Handlers allow database types to be converted to .Net custom types.

Typically a struct is used only when performance is very important. Since value types live on the stack, they can be accessed much quicker than classes. However, the stack has much less room than the heap, so structs should be kept small (Microsoft recommends structs take up no more than 16 bytes)...

The 8 primitive data types byte, short, int, long, char, boolean, float, and double are the types that store most raw numerical data in Java programs. int aInt = 8; // The defining (number) part of this int declaration is called a literal. int hexInt = 0x1a; // = 26; You can define literals...

While char is required to be 1 byte, 1 byte is not required to be 8 bits (often also called an octet), even though most of modern computer platforms define it as 8 bits. The implementation's number of bits per char is provided by the CHAR_BIT macro, defined in <limits.h>. POSIX does requir...

The dynamic keyword declares a variable whose type is not known at compile time. A dynamic variable can contain any value, and the type of the value can change during runtime. As noted in the book "Metaprogramming in .NET", C# does not have a backing type for the dynamic keyword: The...

TypeScript aims to be a superset of JavaScript that transpiles to JavaScript. By generating ECMAScript compliant code, TypeScript can introduce new language features while retaining compatibility with existing JavaScript engines. ES3, ES5 and ES6 are currently supported targets. Optional types ar...

Doctypes - short for 'document type' - help browsers to understand the version of HTML the document is written in for better interpretability. Doctype declarations are not HTML tags and belong at the very top of a document. This topic explains the structure and declaration of various doctypes in HTM...

Every data type in erlang is called Term. It is a generic name that means any data type.

Nullable<int> i = 10; int? j = 11; int? k = null; DateTime? DateOfBirth = DateTime.Now; decimal? Amount = 1.0m; bool? IsAvailable = true; char? Letter = 'a'; (type)? variableName Nullable types can represent all the values of an underlying type as well as null. The syntax T? i...

Using version control software like Git may be a little scary at first, but its intuitive design specializing with branching helps make a number of different types of workflows possible. Pick one that is right for your own development team.

Violations of aliasing rules and of violating the effective type of an object are two different things and should not be confounded. Aliasing is the property of two pointers a and b that refer to the same object, that is that a == b. The effective type of a data object is used by C to de...
