This template is for articles incorporating text from the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures, which is public domain and available free online from the NIST website. It should be placed at the bottom of the article or used as an inline citation.

Without arguments, {{DADS}} produces

 This article incorporates public domain material from the NIST document "Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures" by Paul E. Black.

With two arguments:

{{DADS|Article title|articleURLFragment}}

where articleURLFragment is the html name of the page within the DADS website, and "Article title" is the name of the subject.

Hence,

{{DADS|Adaptive Huffman coding|adaptiveHuffman}}
