BONDAGE-AND-DISCIPLINE LANGUAGE


Meaning of BONDAGE-AND-DISCIPLINE LANGUAGE in English

transcription, транскрипция: [ n. ]

A language (such as Pascal , Ada , APL, or Prolog) that, though ostensibly general-purpose, is designed so as to enforce an author's theory of `right programming' even though said theory is demonstrably inadequate for systems hacking or even vanilla general-purpose programming. Often abbreviated `B&D'; thus, one may speak of things "having the B&D nature". See Pascal ; oppose languages of choice .
