2 definitions found From WordNet r 1.6 [wn]: evaluator n : an authority who is able to estimate worth or quality [syn: {judge}] From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (13 Mar 01) [foldoc]: evaluatorGeoff Burn defines evaluators E0, E1, E2 and E3 which when applied to an expression, reduce it to varying degrees. E0 does no evaluation, E1 it evaluates to {weak head normal form} (WHNF), E2 evaluates the structure of a list, i.e. it evaluates it either to NIL or evaluates it to a CONS and then applies E2 to the second argument of the CONS. E3 evaluates the structure of a list and evaluates each element of the list to {WHNF}. This concept can be extended to data structures other than lists and forms the basis of the {evaluation transformer} style of {strictness analysis}. (1994-12-12)
