    In a programming language, an evaluation strategy is a set of rules for evaluating expressions. [1] The term is often used to refer to the more specific notion of a parameter-passing strategy [2] that defines the kind of value that is passed to the function for each parameter (the binding strategy) [3] and whether to evaluate the parameters of a function call, and if so in what order (the ...

    Tail recursion optimization can be implemented by transforming the program into continuation passing style during compiling, among other approaches. The Scheme language standard requires implementations to support proper tail recursion, meaning they must allow an unbounded number of active tail calls.
