What is the insertion point?

0

In various contexts, the term "insertion point" refers to a specific location where new content is added or inserted into an existing structure.

Here are a few common interpretations:
  • Text Editing: In word processors, text editors, and similar applications, the insertion point (often represented by a blinking cursor) indicates where the next typed character will appear. It marks the exact position in the text where new words, symbols, or other elements will be inserted.
  • Data Structures: In computer science, when dealing with data structures like arrays or linked lists, the insertion point is the index or position where a new element is added to the structure.
  • Assembly (molecular biology): The place on a chromosome where a sequence of DNA can be added or inserted.
