to frequent abuses, and is good or bad, as the case
may be. It relates to what is praiseworthy or the
contrary. Earnest denotes a permanent state of mind,
feeling, or sentiment. It is always taken in a good
sense; as, a preacher is earnest in his appeals to the
conscience; an agent is earnest in his solicitations.

eager evaluation
(foldoc) | eager evaluation
Any evaluation strategy where evaluation of some or all
function arguments is started before their value is required.
A typical example is call-by-value, where all arguments are
passed evaluated. The opposite of eager evaluation is
call-by-need where evaluation of an argument is only started
when it is required.
The term "speculative evaluation" is very close in meaning
to eager evaluation but is applied mostly to parallel
architectures whereas eager evaluation is used of both
sequential and parallel evaluators.
Eager evaluation does not specify exactly when argument
evaluation takes place - it might be done fully speculatively
(all redexes in the program reduced in parallel) or may be
done by the caller just before the function is entered.
The term "eager evaluation" was invented by Carl Hewitt and
Henry Baker and used in their paper ["The
Incremental Garbage Collection of Processes", Sigplan Notices,
Aug 1977.
(ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/hb/hbaker/Futures.html)]. It was
named after their "eager beaver" evaluator.
See also conservative evaluation, lenient evaluation,
strict evaluation.
