linear argument
Jump to user comments
theory A function argument which is used exactly once by the
function.
If the argument is used at most once then it is safe to
inline the function and replace the single occurrence of the
formal parameter with the actual argument expression. If the
argument was used more than once this transformation would
duplicate the argument expression, causing it to be evaluated
more than once.
