  2. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    After a function's value is computed for that parameter or set of parameters, the result is stored in a lookup table that is indexed by the values of those parameters; the next time the function is called, the table is consulted to determine whether the result for that combination of parameter values is already available. If so, the stored ...

  3. Function object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_object

    Java has no first-class functions, so function objects are usually expressed by an interface with a single method (most commonly the Callable interface), typically with the implementation being an anonymous inner class, or, starting in Java 8, a lambda. For an example from Java's standard library, java.util.Collections.sort() takes a List and a ...

  4. List of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    The Tukey lambda distribution is either supported on the whole real line, or on a bounded interval, depending on what range the value of one of the parameters of the distribution is in. The Wakeby distribution

  5. Wildcard (Java) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_(Java)

    In the Java programming language, the wildcard? is a special kind of type argument [1] that controls the type safety of the use of generic (parameterized) types. [2] It can be used in variable declarations and instantiations as well as in method definitions, but not in the definition of a generic type.

  6. Command-line argument parsing - Wikipedia

    PHP uses argc as a count of arguments and argv as an array containing the values of the arguments. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] To create an array from command-line arguments in the -foo:bar format, the following might be used:

  7. Delimited continuation - Wikipedia

    The generalized curry function is given an uncurried function f and its arity (say, 3), and it returns the value of (lambda (v1) (lambda (v2) (lambda (v3) (f v1 v2 v3)))). This example is due to Olivier Danvy and was worked out in the mid-1980s. [13] Here is a unit-test function to illustrate what the generalized curry function is expected to do:

  8. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callback_(computer...

    C++ also allows objects to provide an implementation of the function call operation. The Standard Template Library accepts these objects (called functors) as parameters. Many dynamic languages, such as JavaScript, Lua, Python, Perl [1] [2] and PHP, allow a function object to be passed.

  9. Anonymous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_function

    In computer programming, an anonymous function (function literal, expression or block) is a function definition that is not bound to an identifier.Anonymous functions are often arguments being passed to higher-order functions or used for constructing the result of a higher-order function that needs to return a function.
