Declarative (functional). The declarative approach states what the final state should be. When run, the script or definition will initialize or configure the machine to have the finished state declared without defining how that final state should be achieved....
Let's face it — it's not clear what the above code is doing without examining it line-by-line. This typical flaw is derived from the very definition of imperative programming — that instead of declaring whatyouare trying to achieve, you tell the computer whatitis supposed to do. In ca...
The imperative style requires the definition of four local variables (subObject,parts,len, andi), while the declarative style only uses function parameters. // imperativeexportfunctiongetNestedValue(object,propertyName){if(!propertyName)thrownewError('Impossible to set null property');varsubObject=obj...
Definition of the Problem When you write some code using LINQ that iterates through a collection, you are writing code in a declarative style. It is more akin to describingwhatyou want, rather thathowyou want to get it done. If you write code that 1) gets the first element, 2) t...
Software engineering is a term often used to encompass the entire range of software development, from creating high-level architectural designs to low-level coding. In Software Craftsmanship: The New Imperitive, Pete McBreen proposes a more strict definition of software engineering as the processes ...
Key Bakhtinian ideas that underpin this article are located within a broad definition of dialogism, which can be loosely interpreted as the experience of language as a social event – that of subjectivities colliding with one another at a particular space and time. Seen in this light, language...
This study compared the findings from the literature review in the area of schools as professional learning communities, using specifically Toole and Louis' (2002) definition of a professional learning community, with the perceptions of twelve Manitoba school principals of the normative imperative to ...
If the NA-based vaccine is a DNA-encoding plasmid, the associated genes are transcribed in the nucleus using eukaryotic promoters and translated in the cytoplasm [110]. Conversely, mRNA-based vaccines are transcribed from antigen-coding template DNA by in vitro transcription [110]. Thus, SARS-...
A functional definition of the imperative mood may seem straightforward enough: imperative sentences are what we prototypically use to ask or tell other people to act in a certain way, viz. to perform directive speech acts. However, if we are not to cast our net too wide, it is crucial ...
