( Rhythm section instruments usually include guitars, bass guitars, string basses, piano and other keyboard instruments, and drums.

The electric string bass and upright string bass — depending on the circumstance — can be treated by the arranger as either string section or rhythm section instruments.

In the 1930s, musician and inventor Paul Tutmarc from Seattle, Washington, developed the first electric string bass in its modern form, a fretted instrument designed to be held and played horizontally.

More formally, the complexity of a string is the length of the shortest possible description of the string in some fixed universal description language ( the sensitivity of complexity relative to the choice of description language is discussed below ).

If P is a program which outputs a string x, then P is a description of x.

The length of the description is just the length of P as a character string, multiplied by the number of bits in a character ( e. g. 7 for ASCII ).

If M is a Turing Machine which, on input w, outputs string x, then the concatenated string < M > w is a description of x.

Thus, if P is a program in L < sub > 2 </ sub > which is a minimal description of s, then InterpretLanguage ( P ) returns the string s. The length of this description of s is the sum of

It is not hard to see that the minimal description of a string cannot be too much larger than the string itself-the program GenerateFixedString above that outputs s is a fixed amount larger than s.

* Despite its heritage, Applesoft lacked commands common to most other Microsoft BASIC interpreters, such as INSTR ( which searched for a substring in a given string ; this had to be done manually with loops and the MID $ function ), PRINT USING ( which formatted numbers with commas and currency signs according to a format string ), and INKEY $ ( which checked for a keypress without stopping the program as Applesoft's GET command — analogous to the INPUT $ function — did, although a PEEK location did provide this functionality ).

The name cello is an abbreviation of the Italian violoncello, which means " little violone ", referring to the violone (" big viol "), the lowest-pitched instrument of the viol family, the group of string instruments that went out of fashion around the end of the 17th century in most countries except France, where they survived another half-century or so before the louder violin family came into greater favour in that country too.

Early clavichords frequently had many notes played on each string, even going so far as the keyed monochord — an instrument with only one string — though most clavichords were triple-or double-fretted.

For instance, you might wish to add spell checking to all s, which in most languages would require access to the source code of the string class — and such basic classes are rarely given out in source form.

In the United States, Canada and United Kingdom, most professional orchestral players use four-string double basses with a C extension, which extends the lowest string down as far as low C, an octave below the lowest note on the cello ( more rarely, this string may be tuned to a low B ).

A fiddle is any bowed string musical instrument, most often the violin.

The medieval fiddle emerged in 10th-century Europe, deriving from the Byzantine lira ( Greek: λύρα, Latin: lira, English: lyre ), a bowed string instrument of the Byzantine Empire and ancestor of most European bowed instruments.

Although the most common seven-string has a low B string, Roger McGuinn ( of The Byrds and Rickenbacker ) uses an octave G string paired with the regular G string as on a 12-string guitar, allowing him to incorporate chiming 12-string elements in standard six-string playing.

Double-strung harps often have levers either on every string or on the most commonly sharped strings, for example C and F.

While it is one of the most commonly used concepts in logic it must not be mistaken for a logical law ; rather, it is one of the accepted mechanisms for the construction of deductive proofs that includes the " rule of definition " and the " rule of substitution " Modus ponens allows one to eliminate a conditional statement from a logical proof or argument ( the antecedents ) and thereby not carry these antecedents forward in an ever-lengthening string of symbols ; for this reason modus ponens is sometimes called the rule of detachment.
