  1. Stropping

    In computer language design, stropping is a method of explicitly marking letter sequences as having a special property such as being a keyword or certain type of variable or storage location, and thus inhabiting a different namespace from ordinary names, avoiding clashes. Stropping is not used in most modern languages – instead, keywords are reserved words and cannot be used as identifiers. Stropping allows the same letter sequence to be used both as a keyword and as an identifier, and simplifies parsing in that case – for example allowing a variable named if without clashing with the keyword if.
