Description for Generic and Indexed Programming
Paperback. This book collects lectures from the Spring 2010 School on Generic and Indexed Programming. Includes coverage showing how the forces of genericity and indexing balance each other, simultaneously promoting and controlling generality in programming. Editor(s): Gibbons, Jeremy. Series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science / Theoretical Computer Science and General Issues. Num Pages: 266 pages, 24 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: UM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 415.
Generic programming is about making programs more widely applicable via exotic kinds of parametrization---not just along the dimensions of values or of types, but also of things such as the shape of data, algebraic structures, strategies, computational paradigms, and so on. Indexed programming is a lightweight form of dependently typed programming, constraining flexibility by allowing one to state and check relationships between parameters: that the shapes of two arguments agree, that an encoded value matches some type, that values transmitted along a channel conform to the stated protocol, and so on. The two forces of genericity and indexing ... Read more
