Abstract. We introduce Magda, a modularity-oriented programming language. The language features lightweight mixins as units of code reuse, modular initialization protocols, and a hygienic approach to identifiers. In particular, Magda's modularity guarantees that the client code of a library written in Magda will never break as a consequence of any addition of members to the library's mixins.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
