  2. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    Futures can easily be implemented in channels: a future is a one-element channel, and a promise is a process that sends to the channel, fulfilling the future. [104] [105] This allows futures to be implemented in concurrent programming languages with support for channels, such as CSP and Go. The resulting futures are explicit, as they must be ...

    var x1 = 0; // A global variable, because it is not in any function let x2 = 0; // Also global, this time because it is not in any block function f {var z = 'foxes', r = 'birds'; // 2 local variables m = 'fish'; // global, because it wasn't declared anywhere before function child {var r = 'monkeys'; // This variable is local and does not affect the "birds" r of the parent function. z ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immediately_invoked...

    An initial parenthesis is one case where the automatic semicolon insertion (ASI) in JavaScript can cause problems; the expression is instead interpreted as a call to the last term on the preceding line. In some styles that omit optional semicolons, the semicolon is placed in front of the parenthesis, and is known as a defensive semicolon.

  6. Promise problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promise_problem

    The promise is the set of directed acyclic graphs. In this example, the promise is easy to check. In particular, it is very easy to check if a given graph is cyclic. However, the promised property could be difficult to evaluate. For instance, consider the problem "Given a Hamiltonian graph, determine if the graph has a cycle of size 4."

    Both have event listeners registered on the same event type, say "click". When the user clicks on the inner element, there are two possible ways to handle it: Trigger the elements from outer to inner (event capturing). This model is implemented in Netscape Navigator. Trigger the elements from inner to outer (event bubbling). This model is ...

  8. Design by contract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_by_contract

    The central idea of DbC is a metaphor on how elements of a software system collaborate with each other on the basis of mutual obligations and benefits. The metaphor comes from business life, where a "client" and a "supplier" agree on a "contract" that defines, for example, that:

  9. Exception handling (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_handling...

    An encouraged solution is to use a catch-all handler or throws clause but with a specific superclass of all potentially thrown exceptions rather than the general superclass Exception. Another encouraged solution is to define and declare exception types that are suitable for the level of abstraction of the called method [ 42 ] and map lower ...
