An important design dimension in the implementation of a self-interpreter is whether a feature of the interpreted language is implemented with the same feature in the interpreter's host language. An example is whether a closure in a Lisp-like language is implemented using closures in the interpreter language or implemented "manually" with a ...
The psychology of programming (PoP) is the field of research that deals with the psychological aspects of writing programs (often computer programs). The field has also been called the empirical studies of programming (ESP). It covers research into computer programmers' cognition, tools and methods for programming-related activities, and ...
Common coding theory is a cognitive psychology theory describing how perceptual representations (e.g. of things we can see and hear) and motor representations (e.g. of hand actions) are linked. The theory claims that there is a shared representation (a common code) for both perception and action.
In computer programming, a programming language implementation is a system for executing computer programs. There are two general approaches to programming language implementation: [ 1 ] Interpretation : The program is read as input by an interpreter, which performs the actions written in the program.
Affective computing is the study and development of systems and devices that can recognize, interpret, process, and simulate human affects. It is an interdisciplinary field spanning computer science , psychology , and cognitive science . [ 1 ]
The methods of neuro-linguistic programming are the specific techniques used to perform and teach neuro-linguistic programming, [1] [2] which teaches that people are only able to directly perceive a small part of the world using their conscious awareness, and that this view of the world is filtered by experience, beliefs, values, assumptions, and biological sensory systems.
A compiled language is a programming language for which source code is typically compiled; not interpreted. The term is vague since, in principle, any language can be compiled or interpreted and in practice some languages are both (in different environments). [ 1 ]
An interpretation is an assignment of meaning to the symbols of a formal language. Many formal languages used in mathematics , logic , and theoretical computer science are defined in solely syntactic terms, and as such do not have any meaning until they are given some interpretation.
