    This article lists concurrent and parallel programming languages, categorizing them by a defining paradigm.Concurrent and parallel programming languages involve multiple timelines.

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python, functions are first-class objects that can be created and passed around dynamically. Python's limited support for anonymous functions is the lambda construct. An example is the anonymous function which squares its input, called with the argument of 5:

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Functions are created in Python using the def keyword. In Python, you define the function as if you were calling it, by typing the function name and then the attributes required. Here is an example of a function that will print whatever is given:

  5. Concurrent computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_computing

    SequenceL—general purpose functional, main design objectives are ease of programming, code clarity-readability, and automatic parallelization for performance on multicore hardware, and provably free of race conditions; SR—for research; SuperPascal—concurrent, for teaching, built on Concurrent Pascal and Joyce by Per Brinch Hansen

  6. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(computer...

    A built-in function, or builtin function, or intrinsic function, is a function for which the compiler generates code at compile time or provides in a way other than for other functions. [23] A built-in function does not need to be defined like other functions since it is built in to the programming language. [24]

  7. Multiple dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_dispatch

    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]

  8. Class (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In Ruby, all classes are open. In Python, classes can be created at runtime, and all can be modified afterward. [43] Objective-C categories permit the programmer to add methods to an existing class without the need to recompile that class or even have access to its source code.

  9. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_(computing)

    The concept of a process was born, which also became necessary with the invention of re-entrant code. Threads came somewhat later. However, with the advent of concepts such as time-sharing, computer networks, and multiple-CPU shared memory computers, the old "multiprogramming" gave way to true multitasking, multiprocessing and, later ...
