For example, in higher-order programming, one can pass [[function (programming)|functions]] as arguments to other functions and functions can be the [[return value]] of other functions (such as in [[macro (computer science)|macros]] or for [[interpreter (computing)|interpreting]]). This style of programming is mostly used in [[functional programming]], but it can also be very useful in [[object-oriented programming]]. A slightly different interpretation of higher-order programming in the context of object-oriented programming are [[higher order message]]s, which let messages have other messages as arguments, rather than functions.
