What's an easy way to remember what the term 'memoization' means
- by Evan Plaice
I know this sounds like a strange question.
Intuitively, I know what the concept of memoization means because I have used it in my code before I ever heard of the term. The problem is, I use it so rarely that I lose the association and have to look it up; and, it feels like technobabble (read. gibberish) every time I use it. I might as well be a 'turboenacabulator'.
Is there an easy/simple way to describe how memoization works that relates to the word itself.
