ability to change in code

In programming, mutability means you can change an object after you make it.

نمط الاستخدام: mutability of [data/object] (in [language/system])
خطأ شائع:
Learners may treat mutability as the same as editability of a file; in programming it specifically means changing an object’s state in memory.
المرادفات
modifiability (A close technical synonym; less standard than mutability in programming discourse.) | writability (Sometimes used in technical contexts, especially about whether a value can be written to.)
الأضداد
immutability (An immutable object cannot be changed after creation.)

أمثلة
  • In Python, lists have mutability, but tuples do not.
  • The team reduced bugs by limiting shared mutability between threads.
  • The API documents which fields have mutability and which are read-only.
أمثلة للمتعلّمين

tendency to mutate biologically

In biology, mutability is how easily something mutates.

نمط الاستخدام: the mutability of [gene/virus/genome]
خطأ شائع:
Learners may confuse mutability with mutation itself; mutability is the tendency or rate, not a single change.
المرادفات
mutation rate (More specific and measurable; mutability can be broader and less strictly quantified.) | tendency to mutate (A plain-language paraphrase rather than a fixed single-word synonym.)
الأضداد
genetic stability (Refers to resisting mutation or maintaining genetic consistency.)
المتلازمات اللفظية
viral mutability |genetic mutability |high mutability |low mutability |the mutability of the virus |the mutability of the genome |mutability of DNA |increased mutability |mutability and evolution |mutability rate

أمثلة

  • Researchers measured the mutability of different strains under drug pressure.
  • High mutability can speed adaptation but also increases harmful errors.
أمثلة للمتعلّمين

interior mutability

1
/ɪntˈɪɹiɚ mjˈutəbˈɪlɪti/
fixed phrase technical

mutating through an immutable handle

أمثلة
  • The cache uses interior mutability so it can update itself without requiring a mutable reference.
  • Rust provides interior mutability types that restrict when and how updates happen.
  • They refactored the component to rely on interior mutability instead of widespread mutable state.

shared mutability

1
/ʃˈɛɹd mjˈutəbˈɪlɪti/
fixed phrase technical

shared changeable state in code

Shared mutability is when more than one thing can change the same data.

أمثلة
  • The new design avoids shared mutability by copying data before updating it.
  • Shared mutability can make debugging difficult because state changes in many places.
  • They introduced locks to manage shared mutability across threads.
