'''Skeleton programming''' is a style of [[computer programming]] based on simple high-level program structures and so called '''dummy code'''. Program skeletons resemble [[pseudocode]], but allow [[parsing]], [[compiler|compilation]] and testing of the code. Dummy code is inserted in a program skeleton to simulate processing and avoid [[compiler|compilation]] error messages. It may involve empty [[subroutine|function]] declarations, or functions that return a correct result only for a simple test case where the expected response of the code is known.
