How do call this symbolic code transformation ?
- by erric
Hi,
I often cross this kind of code transformation (or even mathematical transformation)
(python example, but applies to any language)
I've go a function
def f(x):
return x
I use it into another one.
def g(x):
return f(x)*f(x)
print g(2)
leads to 4
But I want to remove the functional dependency, and I change the function g into
def g(f):
return f*f
print g( f(2) )
leads to 4 too
How do you call this kind of transformation, locally turning a function into a scalar ?
