Quote: uniform reference to n-component elements via component names, e.g., A(B(C(D)))) is component A of B of C of D [»rossDT_1963]

Quote: in SL5, identifiers are attributes of an environment; a record is an environment [»hansDR3_1978a]

Quote: in SL5, create a record by creating an environment and then resuming once to initialize itself; uses self() [»hansDR3_1978a]

Quote: data structures consist of templates of arbitrary elements (e.g., functions); implement with pointers [»hallJC5_1974, OK]

Quote: data structures by a set of ordered pairs: index/element [»hehnEC_1977]

Quote: arrays are homogeneous with dynamic selectors; records are heterogeneous with static selectors [»maclBJ_1987, OK]

Quote: in Merlin, records by a list of elements with specified indices; a sequence or array uses numbers for indices [»hehnEC7_1975, OK]

Quote: in a flag computer, a map is a structure whose elements are values; a map is itself a value [»hehnEC3_1978]

Quote: a record is a total function from an index range to values and a partial function from labels to indices [»remyD6_1992]

Quote: object-oriented abstraction as constructors of objects with fields as observations [»cookWR5_1990]

Quote: a record class is all records with the same field names and types; correspond to their natural classification; e.g., person or town [»wirtN6_1966]

Quote: a record represents a physical or conceptual object; a field and field name represents a property [»wirtN6_1966]

Quote: a data record is created dynamically and reclaimed through garbage collection [»wirtN6_1966]

Quote: use reference variables to refer to records and their fields; e.g., age(father(B)) is the age of B's father [»wirtN6_1966]

Quote: classes are a remodeling of records; hierarchical tree structure; members are objects; the prefix of a subclass is the higher level class [»dahlOJ_1967]

Quote: storage semantics is more common than value or reference semantics; represent objects by containment or by references, whichever works better [»taivA4_1993]

Quote: CLR generics identify compatible parameterizations; i.e., reference types, struct types compatible if same layout re garbage collection; otherwise unshared code [»kennA6_2001]

Note: field definition should be the same as local definition; use tables for both? [»cbb_2000, OK]

Quote: use reference types to link records into structural networks of any desired complexity [»wirtN6_1966]

Quote: need constructors and extractors for records; default values and tuple values [»gescCM6_1975, OK]

Quote: a Linda tuple is a series of typed fields, e.g., strings and numbers [»carrN4_1989]
