Attribute-oriented programming

Attribute-oriented programming (AOP) is a program-level marking technique. Programmers can mark program elements (e.g. classes and methods) to indicate that they maintain application-specific or domain-specific semantics. For example, some programmers may define a "logging" attribute and associate it with a method to indicate the method should implement a logging function, while other programmers may define a "web service" attribute and associate it with a class to indicate the class should be implemented as a web service. Attributes separate application's core logic (or business logic) from application-specific or domain-specific semantics (e.g. logging and web service functions). By hiding the implementation details of those semantics from program code, attributes increase the level of programming abstraction and reduce programming complexity, resulting in simpler and more readable programs. The program elements associated with attributes are transformed to more detailed programs by a supporting tool (e.g. preprocessor). For example, a preprocessor may insert a logging program into the methods associated with a "logging" attribute.

Octagonal prism

In geometry, the octagonal prism is the sixth in an infinite set of prisms, formed by square sides and two regular octagon caps.

If faces are all regular, it is a semiregular polyhedron.

Symmetry

Images

The octagonal prism can also be seen as a tiling on a sphere:

Use

In optics, octagonal prisms are used to generate flicker-free images in movie projectors.

In uniform honeycombs and 4-polytopes

It is an element of three uniform honeycombs:

It is also an element of two four-dimensional uniform 4-polytopes:
