Hygienic macro
Hygienic macros are macros whose expansion is guaranteed not to cause the accidental of identifiers. They are a feature of programming languages such as Scheme, Dylan, Rust, Nim, and Julia. The genera
Expression templates
Expression templates are a C++ template metaprogramming technique that builds structures representing a computation at compile time, where expressions are evaluated only as needed to produce efficient
Metaprogramming
Metaprogramming is a programming technique in which computer programs have the ability to treat other programs as their data. It means that a program can be designed to read, generate, analyze or tran
Template Haskell
Template Haskell is an experimental language extension to the Haskell programming language implemented in the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (version 6 and later). In early incarnations it was also known as
Program transformation
A program transformation is any operation that takes a computer program and generates another program. In many cases the transformed program is required to be semantically equivalent to the original,
Template metaprogramming
Template metaprogramming (TMP) is a metaprogramming technique in which templates are used by a compiler to generate temporary source code, which is merged by the compiler with the rest of the source c
Transformation language
A transformation language is a computer language designed to transform some input text in a certain formal language into a modified output text that meets some specific goal. Program transformation sy
MacroML
MacroML is an experimental programming language based on the ML family, seeking to reconcile ML's static typing and the types of macro systems commonly found in dynamically typed languages like Scheme
Compiler-compiler
In computer science, a compiler-compiler or compiler generator is a programming tool that creates a parser, interpreter, or compiler from some form of formal description of a programming language and
Template (C++)
Templates are a feature of the C++ programming language that allows functions and classes to operate with generic types. This allows a function or class to work on many different data types without be
