  2. Null object pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_object_pattern

    In object-oriented computer programming, a null object is an object with no referenced value or with defined neutral (null) behavior.The null object design pattern, which describes the uses of such objects and their behavior (or lack thereof), was first published as "Void Value" [1] and later in the Pattern Languages of Program Design book series as "Null Object".

  3. Singleton pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern

    A class diagram exemplifying the singleton pattern. In object-oriented programming, the singleton pattern is a software design pattern that restricts the instantiation of a class to a singular instance. It is one of the well-known "Gang of Four" design patterns, which describe how to solve recurring problems in object-oriented software. [1]

  4. Singleton (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_(mathematics)

    A set such as {{,,}} is a singleton as it contains a single element (which itself is a set, but not a singleton). A set is a singleton if and only if its cardinality is 1. In von Neumann's set-theoretic construction of the natural numbers, the number 1 is defined as the singleton {}.

  5. Unit type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_type

    Several computer programming languages provide a unit type to specify the result type of a function with the sole purpose of causing a side effect, and the argument type of a function that does not require arguments. In Haskell, Rust, and Elm, the unit type is called and its only value is also (), reflecting the 0-tuple interpretation.

  6. Entity component system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity_component_system

    Unity's layout has tables each with columns of components. In this system an entity type is based on the components it holds. For every entity type there is a table (called an archetype) holding columns of components that match the components used in the entity. To access a particular entity one must find the correct archetype (table) and index ...

  7. Singleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton

    Singleton pattern, a design pattern that allows only one instance of a class to exist; Singleton bound, used in coding theory; Singleton variable, a variable that is referenced only once; Singleton, a character encoded with one unit in variable-width encoding schemes for computer character sets

  8. Talk:Singleton pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Singleton_pattern

    See Singleton pattern. A singleton is also a variable that is only used once in a program, usually indicating a programming mistake. See singleton variable. From the start of the term 'Singleton pattern': In software engineering, the singleton design pattern is designed to restrict instantiation of a class to one (or a few) objects.

  9. Visitor pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visitor_pattern

    Now, the multiple dispatch occurs in the call issued from the body of the anonymous function, and so traverse is just a mapping function that distributes a function application over the elements of an object. Thus all traces of the Visitor Pattern disappear, except for the mapping function, in which there is no evidence of two objects being ...
