    • eval, a function which evaluates a string as though it were an expression, or executes multiple lines of code
    • Evaluation strategy or reduction strategy, a set of rules for defining the evaluation of expressions under β-reduction
    • Lazy evaluation, a technique of delaying computation of expressions until the results of the computation are needed
    • Minimal evaluation or short circuit evaluation, an evaluation strategy in which an expression is only evaluated until the point where its final value is known
    • Partial evaluation, a technique for program optimization by specialization
    • Remote evaluation, the transmission of executable software programs from a client computer to a server computer for execution
  • Evaluation function, used by game-playing programs to estimate the advantage of a position, also known as heuristic evaluation function or static evaluation function
