In computer programming, a callback is a function that is stored as data (a reference) and designed to be called by another function – often back to the original abstraction layer. A function that accepts a callback parameter may be designed to call back before returning to its caller which is known as synchronous or blocking .
This function has one argument of a function type; that function argument accepts the function too, which discards all computations going after its call. For example, let's break the execution of the pyth function if at least one of its arguments is negative returning zero:
The debugging interface of Eclipse with a program suspended at a breakpoint. Panels with stack trace (upper left) and watched variables (upper right) can be seen. In software development, a breakpoint is an intentional stopping or pausing place in a program, put in place for debugging purposes. It is also sometimes simply referred to as a pause
Instead of using a physical stop button to suspend execution - to then begin stepping through the application program, a breakpoint or "Pause" request must usually be set beforehand, usually at a particular statement/instruction in the program (chosen beforehand or alternatively, by default, at the first instruction).
In Python, functions are first-class objects, just like strings, numbers, lists etc. This feature eliminates the need to write a function object in many cases. Any object with a __call__() method can be called using function-call syntax. An example is this accumulator class (based on Paul Graham's study on programming language syntax and ...
21% of Americans have chronic pain. A new study found that diets rich in vegetables, fruits, grains, lean proteins, and dairy was linked to less chronic pain.
From Nicole Kidman’s erotic thriller “Babygirl,” to a book of sexual fantasies edited by Gillian Anderson, this was the year the female sex drive took the wheel in popular culture.
Segmented linear regression with two segments separated by a breakpoint can be useful to quantify an abrupt change of the response function (Yr) of a varying influential factor (x). The breakpoint can be interpreted as a critical , safe , or threshold value beyond or below which (un)desired effects occur.
