  2. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    In other cases a future and a promise are created together and associated with each other: the future is the value, the promise is the function that sets the value – essentially the return value (future) of an asynchronous function (promise). Setting the value of a future is also called resolving, fulfilling, or binding it.

  3. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    The return type, Task<T>, is C#'s analogue to the concept of a promise, and here is indicated to have a result value of type int. The first expression to execute when this method is called will be new HttpClient().GetByteArrayAsync(uri) , [ 13 ] : 189–190, 344 [ 1 ] : 882 which is another asynchronous method returning a Task<byte[]> .

  4. Ternary conditional operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_conditional_operator

    The detailed semantics of "the" ternary operator as well as its syntax differs significantly from language to language. A top level distinction from one language to another is whether the expressions permit side effects (as in most procedural languages) and whether the language provides short-circuit evaluation semantics, whereby only the selected expression is evaluated (most standard ...

  5. Ajax (programming) - Wikipedia

    JavaScript to bring these technologies together; Since then, however, there have been a number of developments in the technologies used in an Ajax application, and in the definition of the term Ajax itself. XML is no longer required for data interchange and, therefore, XSLT is no longer required for the manipulation of data.

  6. JavaScript syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript_syntax

    The binary logical operators returned a Boolean value in early versions of JavaScript, but now they return one of the operands instead. The left–operand is returned, if it can be evaluated as : false, in the case of conjunction: (a && b), or true, in the case of disjunction: (a || b); otherwise the right–operand is returned. Automatic type ...

  7. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In the function numberFromInfiniteList, the value of infinity is an infinite range, but until an actual value (or more specifically, a specific value at a certain index) is needed, the list is not evaluated, and even then, it is only evaluated as needed (that is, until the desired index.) Provided the programmer is careful, the program ...

  8. jQuery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JQuery

    Certain jQuery object methods retrieve specific values (instead of modifying a state). An example of this is the val() method, which returns the current value of a text input element. In these cases, a statement such as $('#user-email').val() cannot be used for chaining as the return value does not reference a jQuery object.

  9. Map (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_(higher-order_function)

    Interpreting the universe of data types as a category , with morphisms being functions, then a type constructor F that is a member of the Functor type class is the object part of such a functor, and fmap :: (a -> b) -> F a -> F b is the morphism part. The functor laws described above are precisely the category-theoretic functor axioms for this ...
