Famous eponymous programming techniques
- by Alicia
In some sports certain techniques or elements are named after the athlete who invented or first performed them—for example, Biellmann spin.
Is their widespread use of such names for programming techniques and idioms? What are they? To be clear, I am explicitly not asking about algorithms, which are quite often named after their creators.
For example, one is Schwartzian transform, but I can't recall any more.
