  2. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In Miranda and Haskell, evaluation of function arguments is delayed by default. In many other languages, evaluation can be delayed by explicitly suspending the computation using special syntax (as with Scheme's "delay" and "force" and OCaml's "lazy" and "Lazy.force") or, more generally, by wrapping the expression in a thunk.

  3. Apology (act) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apology_(act)

    The way the apology is given affects the outcome and the process of forgiveness. [4] For example, putting genuine emotion into an apology generally helps resolve disputes more quickly and helps rid negative emotions faster. When responding to a crisis, there are multiple implications and ethical standards organizations and groups might follow.

  4. Late binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late_binding

    For example, an IDE's "go to definition" feature may not function on a late-bound call, if the IDE has no way to know which class the call may refer to. A modern IDE easily solves this especially for object-oriented languages since a late-bound method always specifies an interface or base class, which is where "go to definition" leads, and ...

    In linguistics, information structure, also called information packaging, describes the way in which information is formally packaged within a sentence. [1] This generally includes only those aspects of information that "respond to the temporary state of the addressee's mind", and excludes other aspects of linguistic information such as references to background (encyclopedic/common) knowledge ...

    Example: Abdul is happy. Jeanne is a person. I am she. Subject + Verb (transitive) + Indirect Object + Direct Object Example: She made me a pie. This clause pattern is a derivative of S+V+O, transforming the object of a preposition into an indirect object of the verb, as the example sentence in transformational grammar is actually "She made a ...

    No matter how untrue the allegations were, you had to admit fault and apologize to “the family.” If your apology wasn’t deemed sincere enough, you could lose phone privileges for days, even weeks, or be made to wear an embarrassing sign around your neck. This adaptation of the Game went on all day.

  9. Function problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_problem

    This function problem is called the function variant of ; it belongs to the class FNP. FNP can be thought of as the function class analogue of NP, in that solutions of FNP problems can be efficiently (i.e., in polynomial time in terms of the length of the input) verified, but not necessarily efficiently found.
