  2. Interface (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_(object-oriented...

    For example, in Python, any class can implement an __iter__ method and be used as a collection. [3] Type classes in languages like Haskell, or module signatures in ML and OCaml, are used for many of the things that protocols are used for. [clarification needed] In Rust, interfaces are called traits. [4]

  3. Foreign function interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_function_interface

    The primary function of a foreign function interface is to mate the semantics and calling conventions of one programming language (the host language, or the language which defines the FFI), with the semantics and conventions of another (the guest language).

  4. String interning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interning

    In computer science, string interning is a method of storing only one copy of each distinct string value, which must be immutable. [1] Interning strings makes some string processing tasks more time-efficient or space-efficient at the cost of requiring more time when the string is created or interned.

  5. Interning (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interning_(computer_science)

    Interning continues to be an important technique for managing memory use in programming language implementations; for example, the Java Language Specification requires that identical string literals (that is, literals that contain the same sequence of code points) must refer to the same instance of class String, because string literals are ...

  6. Fluent interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface

    In Python, returning self in the instance method is one way to implement the fluent pattern. It is however discouraged by the language’s creator, Guido van Rossum, [3] and therefore considered unpythonic (not idiomatic) for operations that do not return new values. Van Rossum provides string processing operations as example where he sees the ...

    32-bit compilers emit, respectively: _f _g@4 @h@4 In the stdcall and fastcall mangling schemes, the function is encoded as _name@X and @name@X respectively, where X is the number of bytes, in decimal, of the argument(s) in the parameter list (including those passed in registers, for fastcall).

  8. Source-to-source compiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-to-source_compiler

    Java: The Runtime Converter is an automatic tool which converts PHP source code into Java source code. There is a Java runtime library for certain features of the PHP language, as well as the ability to call into the PHP binary itself using JNI for PHP standard library and extension function calls.

  9. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    Java constructors perform the following tasks in the following order: Call the default constructor of the superclass if no constructor is defined. Initialize member variables to the specified values. Executes the body of the constructor. Java permit users to call one constructor in another constructor using this() keyword.
