  2. Immediately invoked function expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immediately_invoked...

    Immediately invoked function expressions may be written in a number of different ways. [3] A common convention is to enclose the function expression – and optionally its invocation operator – with the grouping operator, [4] in parentheses, to tell the parser explicitly to expect an expression.

  3. Anonymous recursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_recursion

    This creates a higher-order function, and passing this higher function itself allows anonymous recursion within the actual recursive function. This can be done purely anonymously by applying a fixed-point combinator to this higher order function. This is mainly of academic interest, particularly to show that the lambda calculus has recursion ...

  4. Anonymous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_function

    A higher-order function is a function that takes a function as an argument or returns one as a result. This is commonly used to customize the behavior of a generically defined function, often a looping construct or recursion scheme. Anonymous functions are a convenient way to specify such function arguments. The following examples are in Python 3.

  5. this (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In Lua, self is created as syntactic sugar when functions are defined using the : operator. [20] When invoking a method using :, the object being indexed will be implicitly given as the first argument to the function being invoked. For example, the following two functions are equivalent:

  6. Message passing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_passing

    Message passing is a technique for invoking behavior (i.e., running a program) on a computer. In contrast to the traditional technique of calling a program by name, message passing uses an object model to distinguish the general function from the specific implementations.

  7. JavaScript syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript_syntax

    Function declarations, which declare a variable and assign a function to it, are similar to variable statements, but in addition to hoisting the declaration, they also hoist the assignment – as if the entire statement appeared at the top of the containing function – and thus forward reference is also possible: the location of a function ...

    “It’s about being authentic, being consistent, and, you know, the players feel like you’re helping them become the best version of their self," Moore said. "That’s all they can ask for.”

  9. Lambda calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_calculus

    Recursion is the definition of a function invoking itself. A definition containing itself inside itself, by value, leads to the whole value being of infinite size. Other notations which support recursion natively overcome this by referring to the function definition by name. Lambda calculus cannot express this: all functions are anonymous in ...
