  2. Syntactic sugar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_sugar

    For example, many programming languages provide special syntax for referencing and updating array elements. Abstractly, an array reference is a procedure of two arguments: an array and a subscript vector, which could be expressed as get_array(Array, vector(i,j)). Instead, many languages provide syntax such as Array[i,j].

  3. Method cascading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_cascading

    Cascading is syntactic sugar that eliminates the need to list the object repeatedly. This is particularly used in fluent interfaces , which feature many method calls on a single object. This is particularly useful if the object is the value of a lengthy expression, as it eliminates the need to either list the expression repeatedly or use a ...

  4. Comparison of programming languages (list comprehension)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    List comprehension is a syntactic construct available in some programming languages for creating a list based on existing lists. It follows the form of the mathematical set-builder notation (set comprehension) as distinct from the use of map and filter functions.

  5. Operator overloading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_overloading

    Operator overloading is syntactic sugar, and is used because it allows programming using notation nearer to the target domain [1] and allows user-defined types a similar level of syntactic support as types built into a language. It is common, for example, in scientific computing, where it allows computing representations of mathematical objects ...

  6. Method chaining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_chaining

    Method chaining is a common syntax for invoking multiple method calls in object-oriented programming languages. Each method returns an object, allowing the calls to be chained together in a single statement without requiring variables to store the intermediate results.

  7. Sather - Wikipedia

    In this example, it's used for instantiating the OUT class, which is the class for the standard output. The + operator has been overloaded by the class to append the string passed as argument to the stream. Operators such as + are syntactic sugar for conventionally named method calls: a + b stands for a.plus(b). The usual arithmetic precedence ...

  9. this (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_(computer_programming)

    In the programming language Dylan, which is an object-oriented language that supports multimethods and doesn't have a concept of this, sending a message to an object is still kept in the syntax. The two forms below work in the same way; the differences are just syntactic sugar. object.method(param1, param2) and method (object, param1, param2)
