What is Tacit programming?
'''Tacit programming''' (or '''point-free programming''') is the [[wikt:style|style]] of [[programming]] [[Function (mathematics)|functions]] where the [[parameter]] is not mentioned. Instead, the functions are defined using [[combinatory logic|combinators]] and higher-level [[wikt:abstraction|abstraction]]s like [[map (higher-order function)|map]] (which applies a function to each element of a list).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.tcl.tk/14006 |title=Tacit programming |publisher=Wiki.tcl.tk |accessdate=2011-11-12}}</ref> It is commonly used in [[functional programming language]]s like [[Haskell (programming language)|Haskell]]. ==Related pages== * [[Anonymous function]] * [[Function (mathematics)]] * [[Lambda calculus]] * [[Combinatory logic]] == References == {{reflist}} {{multistub|math|tech}} [[Category:Computer programming]] [[Category:Functions and mappings]]
