The definition of the term varies depending upon the community using it. In Ruby, [2] Python, [3] and many other dynamic programming languages, the term monkey patch only refers to dynamic modifications of a class or module at runtime, motivated by the intent to patch existing third-party code as a workaround to a bug or feature which does not act as desired.
Duck typing is similar to, but distinct from, structural typing.Structural typing is a static typing system that determines type compatibility and equivalence by a type's structure, whereas duck typing is dynamic and determines type compatibility by only that part of a type's structure that is accessed during runtime.
In computing, copy-and-patch compilation is a simple compiler technique intended for just-in-time compilation (JIT compilation) that uses pattern matching to match pre-generated templates to parts of an abstract syntax tree (AST) or bytecode stream, and emit corresponding pre-written machine code fragments that are then patched to insert memory addresses, register addresses, constants and ...
Multiple dispatch or multimethods is a feature of some programming languages in which a function or method can be dynamically dispatched based on the run-time (dynamic) type or, in the more general case, some other attribute of more than one of its arguments. [1]

Perhaps someone could shorten them down to the minimum possible - and remove all the silly duck stuff. The Python example is a good, meaningful, succinct demonstration of the principle. Stevage 06:55, 30 November 2011 (UTC) Would it be possible to create a List of examples of duck typing page and move most examples there? If it is just pruned ...
Former Rep. Matt Gaetz said Wednesday that he had sent money to his girlfriends, and that he "probably partied, womanized, drank and smoked more than I should have" when he was younger.. Gaetz ...
Patch – A set of changes to a computer program or its supporting data designed to update, fix, or improve it. Historically, software suppliers distributed patches on paper tape or on punched cards, expecting the recipient to cut out the indicated part of the original tape (or deck), and patch in (hence the name) the replacement segment
