  1. substitutability

    The Liskov substitution principle (LSP) is a particular definition of a subtyping relation, called strong behavioral subtyping, that was initially introduced by Barbara Liskov in a 1987 conference keynote address titled Data abstraction and hierarchy. It is based on the concept of "substitutability" – a principle in object-oriented programming stating that an object (such as a class) may be replaced by a sub-object (such as a class that extends the first class) without breaking the program. It is a semantic rather than merely syntactic relation, because it intends to guarantee semantic interoperability of types in a hierarchy, object types in particular. Barbara Liskov and Jeannette Wing described the principle succinctly in a 1994 paper as follows: Subtype Requirement: Let ϕ ( x ) {\displaystyle \phi (x)} be a property provable about objects x {\displaystyle x} of type T. Then ϕ ( y ) {\displaystyle \phi (y)} should be true for objects y {\displaystyle y} of type S where S is a subtype of T. Symbolically:

  1. substitutability

    Substitutability refers to the ability of one product, service, or good to replace another because they are similar enough to serve the same function or purpose. It is a concept often used in economics and marketing, indicating the degree to which consumers or businesses can replace one choice with another. High substitutability means that there are other comparable options readily available in the market, while low substitutability implies options are unique or distinctive with fewer, if any, alternatives available.
