  2. call-with-current-continuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call-with-current-continuation

    Calling f with a regular function argument first applies this function to the value 2, then returns 3. However, when f is passed to call/cc (as in the last line of the example), applying the parameter (the continuation) to 2 forces execution of the program to jump to the point where call/cc was called, and causes call/cc to return the value 2.

  3. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    The get-word! values (i.e., :calc-product and :calc-sum) trigger the interpreter to return the code of the function rather than evaluate with the function. The datatype! references in a block! [float! integer!] restrict the type of values passed as arguments.

  4. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    Conversely, in an eager language the above definition for ifThenElse a b c would evaluate (a), (b), and (c) regardless of the value of (a). This is not the desired behavior, as (b) or (c) may have side effects, take a long time to compute, or throw errors. It is usually possible to introduce user-defined lazy control structures in eager ...

  5. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    If data is a Series, then data['a'] returns all values with the index value of a. However, if data is a DataFrame, then data['a'] returns all values in the column(s) named a. To avoid this ambiguity, Pandas supports the syntax data.loc['a'] as an alternative way to filter using the index. Pandas also supports the syntax data.iloc[n], which ...

  6. Lambda lifting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_lifting

    However it does not demonstrate the soundness of lambda calculus for deduction, as the eta reduction used in lambda lifting is the step that introduces cardinality problems into the lambda calculus, because it removes the value from the variable, without first checking that there is only one value that satisfies the conditions on the variable ...

  7. Continuation-passing style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation-passing_style

    In functional programming, continuation-passing style (CPS) is a style of programming in which control is passed explicitly in the form of a continuation.This is contrasted with direct style, which is the usual style of programming.

  8. Conditional (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    If-then-else flow diagram A nested if–then–else flow diagram. The computer science, conditionals (that is, conditional statements, conditional expressions and conditional constructs) are programming language constructs that perform different computations or actions or return different values depending on the value of a Boolean expression, called a condition.

  9. Anonymous recursion - Wikipedia

    C = lambda x: x (x) fact1 = lambda f: (lambda n1: 1 if n1 == 0 else n1 * f (f)(n1-1)) fact = C (fact1) Factoring out the other double application yields: C = lambda x : x ( x ) D = lambda f : ( lambda x : f ( lambda v : x ( x )( v ))) fact1 = lambda g : ( lambda n1 : 1 if n1 == 0 else n1 * g ( n1 - 1 )) fact = C ( D ( fact1 ))
