n. [uncommon, U.K.; originally a serendipitous typo in 1994] A pointer to a
|
|
|
|
|
function in C and C++. By association with sub-atomic particles such as the
|
|
|
|
|
neutrino, it accurately conveys an impression of smallness (one pointer is
|
|
|
|
|
four bytes on most systems) and speed (hackers can and do use arrays of
|
|
|
|
|
functinos to replace a switch() statement).
