Glossary
- contiguous
- When all items in a collection are sequential with no missing indexes.
For example, 1, 2, 3 is contiguous whilst 1, 3 is not.
- head
- The common leading part of items in a collection. For example, the
items file.0001.jpg, file.0002.jpg, file.0003.jpg have a head
value of file.
- padding
- The width of the numerical index in a collection. Each item’s index
will be padded with zeroes to match this width. A padding of 4 would
result in 1 becoming 0001. A padding of 0 means no width is defined
and an index can be any width so long as it has no preceding zeroes.
- tail
- The common trailing part of items in a collection. For example, the
items file.0001.jpg, file.0002.jpg, file.0003.jpg have a tail
value of .jpg
