  2. Syntactic sugar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_sugar

    In computer science, syntactic sugar is syntax within a programming language that is designed to make things easier to read or to express. It makes the language "sweeter" for human use: things can be expressed more clearly, more concisely, or in an alternative style that some may prefer.

  3. 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 ...

    Landin is responsible for inventing the stack, environment, control, dump SECD machine, the first abstract machine for a functional programming language, [12] and the ISWIM programming language, defining the Landin off-side rule and for coining the term syntactic sugar.

  5. Monad (functional programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monad_(functional_programming)

    This is only syntactic sugar that disguises a monadic pipeline as a code block; the compiler will then quietly translate these expressions into underlying functional code. Translating the add function from the Maybe into Haskell can show this feature in action. A non-monadic version of add in Haskell looks like this:

  9. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    A decorator is passed the original object being defined and returns a modified object, which is then bound to the name in the definition. Python decorators were inspired in part by Java annotations, and have a similar syntax; the decorator syntax is pure syntactic sugar, using @ as the keyword:
