32-1315: A divertimento from his ballet to music of Tchaikovsky , Le baiser de la fée , while Joaquín Rodrigo called his 1982 cello concerto a " Concierto como un divertimento " ("Concerto like a divertimento"). Robert Davine also composed a Divertimento for Flute, Clarinet, Bassoon and Accordion for chamber music ensemble. divertire Look for Divertire on one of Misplaced Pages's sister projects : [REDACTED] Wiktionary (dictionary) [REDACTED] Wikibooks (textbooks) [REDACTED] Wikiquote (quotations) [REDACTED] Wikisource (library) [REDACTED] Wikiversity (learning resources) [REDACTED] Commons (media) [REDACTED] Wikivoyage (travel guide) [REDACTED] Wikinews (news source) [REDACTED] Wikidata (linked database) [REDACTED] Wikispecies (species directory) Misplaced Pages does not have an article with this exact name.

48-407: A dance suite approach (derived from the 'ballet' type of theatrical divertimento ), or take the form of other chamber music genres of their century (as a continuation of the merely instrumental theatrical divertimento ). There are many other terms which describe music similar to the divertimento , including serenade , cassation , notturno , Nachtmusik ; after about 1780, the divertimento

64-403: A function is defined in lowercase, it can be called in uppercase, but if a variable is defined in lowercase, it cannot be referred to in uppercase. Nim is case-insensitive and ignores underscores, as long as the first characters match. A text search operation could be case-sensitive or case-insensitive, depending on the system, application, or context. The user can in many cases specify whether

80-468: A search is sensitive to case, e.g. in most text editors, word processors, and Web browsers. A case-insensitive search is more comprehensive, finding "Language" (at the beginning of a sentence), "language", and "LANGUAGE" (in a title in capitals); a case-sensitive search will find the computer language "BASIC" but exclude most of the many unwanted instances of the word. For example, the Google Search engine

96-407: A source code tree for software for Unix-like systems might have both a file named Makefile and a file named makefile in the same directory. In addition, some Mac Installers assume case insensitivity and fail on case-sensitive file systems. The older MS-DOS filesystems FAT12 and FAT16 were case-insensitive and not case-preserving, so that a file whose name is entered as readme.txt or ReadMe.txt

112-427: A wide variety of secular (non-religious) instrumental works for soloist or chamber ensemble. It is usually a kind of music entertainment, although it could also be applied to a more serious genre. After 1780, the term generally designated works that were informal or light. As a separate genre, it appears to have no specific form, although most of the divertimenti of the second half of the 18th century go either back to

128-671: Is a serious work belonging with his string quartets and quintets . Other composers of divertimenti include Leopold Mozart , Carl Stamitz , Joseph Haydn and Luigi Boccherini . Several examples exist from the 20th century, including works by Alfred Reed , Nikolai Medtner , Ferruccio Busoni , Vincent Persichetti , Charles Wuorinen , Sergei Prokofiev , Béla Bartók , Benjamin Britten , Leonard Bernstein , Paul Graener , Gordon Jacob , Lennox Berkeley , Gareth Walters , Malcolm Arnold , Lars-Erik Larsson , Saint-Preux , Bohuslav Martinů and Joe Hisaishi . Igor Stravinsky also arranged

144-578: Is basically case-insensitive, with no option for case-sensitive search. In Oracle SQL, most operations and searches are case-sensitive by default, while in most other DBMSes , SQL searches are case-insensitive by default. Case-insensitive operations are sometimes said to fold case , from the idea of folding the character code table so that upper- and lowercase letters coincide. In filesystems in Unix-like systems, filenames are usually case-sensitive (there can be separate readme.txt and Readme.txt files in

160-605: Is saved as README.TXT. Later, with VFAT in Windows 95 the FAT file systems became case-preserving as an extension of supporting long filenames . Later Windows file systems such as NTFS are internally case-sensitive, and a readme.txt and a Readme.txt can coexist in the same directory. However, for practical purposes filenames behave as case-insensitive as far as users and most software are concerned. This can cause problems for developers or software coming from Unix-like environments, similar to

Retrieved from " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divertire " Case sensitivity Case sensitivity may differ depending on the situation: Some programming languages are case-sensitive for their identifiers ( C , C++ , Java , C# , Verilog , Ruby , Python and Swift ). Others are case-insensitive (i.e., not case-sensitive), such as ABAP , Ada , most BASICs (an exception being BBC BASIC ), Common Lisp , Fortran , SQL (for

208-506: The same directory). MacOS is somewhat unusual in that, by default, it uses HFS+ and APFS in a case-insensitive (so that there cannot be a readme.txt and a Readme.txt in the same directory) but case-preserving mode (so that a file created as readme.txt is shown as readme.txt and a file created as Readme.txt is shown as Readme.txt) by default. This causes some issues for developers and power users , because most file systems in other Unix-like environments are case-sensitive, and, for example,

224-508: The syntax, and for some vendor implementations, e.g. Microsoft SQL Server , the data itself) Pascal , Rexx and ooRexx . There are also languages, such as Haskell , Prolog , and Go , in which the capitalisation of an identifier encodes information about its semantics . Some other programming languages have varying case sensitivity; in PHP , for example, variable names are case-sensitive but function names are not case-sensitive. This means that if

240-565: Was often used to accompany banquets and other social events. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is known for having composed different types of divertimenti , sometimes even taking the form of a small symphony (or, more exactly: sinfonia ), for example, the Salzburg Symphonies K. 136, K. 137 and K. 138. Even more unusual is his six movement string trio , the Divertimento in E-flat, K. 563 , which

256-533: Was the term most commonly applied to this light, "after-dinner" and often outdoor music. Divertimenti have from one to nine movements , and there is at least one example with thirteen. The earliest publication to use the name " divertimento " is by Carlo Grossi in 1681 in Venice ( Il divertimento de' grandi: musiche da camera, ò per servizio di tavola ) and the hint that the divertimento is to accompany "table service" applies to later ages as well, since this light music
